Slowly but surely our favorites from the 2015 Sundance Film Festival are rolling out into the world. First with trailers, then with actual releases. We can’t wait for everyone to be able to see and enjoy some of these movies as our team did in January in Park City. In the past few months, we’ve been happy to share with you the trailers for the urban coming of age film Dope and the heartbreaking yet heartwarming cancer dramedy Me and Earl and the Dying Girl.
The latest addition to this list of teen-centric films from Sundance is The Diary of a Teenage Girl, a film from newcomer Merielle Heller. It is soon to launch the career of its leading lady, Bel Powley, who is phenomenal as the titular teenage girl. It’s raw, honest and emotionally resonant with great supporting performances from the likes of Alexander Skarsgard, Kristen Wiig and Christopher Meloni.
As our own Jack Giroux explained when we named it among the Best Movies of Sundance 2015, it’s “a beautiful, honest and moving portrait of becoming a woman and the kind of mistakes we all make that ultimately help us grow.”
The Diary of a Teenage Girl is due in theaters starting on August 7.
