“It’s title may sound definitive, but AMERICAN TEEN is not the only doc about American teens on the festival circuit.”
By Kristy | July 9, 2008
Check out this really cool review comparing our film alongside American Teen, and Hard Times at Douglas High. Guess who “touches more often and more deeply than these other two films, so if it stops short of offering a Grand Statement about The Way Kids Live Now, that seems okay––as a portrait of the inner lives of teen girls in a single community, its most complete” ??
Thank you Karina Longworth whomever you are, for having such deep insights into our film (the jab about our animation not included!) This is one of my favorite reviews, because American Teen has really been a festival favorite and a film that we suspect we are often seen as being in competition against. But this review really sheds light on the fact that they are completely different stories and films.
And if you happen to be in Seoul, Korea next week our film will be playing at the Cinus Movie Theatre as part of the 10th Seoul International Youth Film Festival in the “It’s OK To Be Different” Feature Documentary section. We wish we could be there!
