我的老屁友

剧情简介：The summer before college,bright-yet-irreverent Elliott comes face-to-face with her older self during a mushroom trip. The encounter spurs a funny and heartfelt journey of self-discovery and first love as Elliott prepares to leave her childhood home. Writer-director Megan Park’s tender,surprising sophomore feature cleverly uses its high-concept premise of a visit from one’s future self to launch a refreshing,nuanced exploration of the uncertainties of young romance and coming of age. My Old Ass is a sweet teenage love story,a lively contemporary comedy,and a quirky riff on time-travel films all in one. Maisy Stella and Aubrey Plaza have a terrific unlikely chemistry,as the sass and self-assuredness of the young Elliott,as played by Stella,blends and overlaps with Plaza’s sardonic humor as a more mature Elliott. The care and affection shown in the film’s depiction of Elliott’s rural hometown in her last days before taking off for adulthood visually highlights her emotional journey,evoking a nostalgia for days that haven’t even ended yet.—HZ
