Isn't youth connected by these fragments?

A few memorable episodes:

1. The electronic music and slow motion that sounded when Keira put on her swimsuit and walked outside from the bathroom actually gave the illusion of watching a horror movie. That glass resembles the flickering that separates the world from the X area in the movie Annihilation—a place full of unknowns and fears. When she finally pushed open the floor-to-ceiling windows, she was as quiet as an invisible person, separated from the crowd, alone on the side of the pool, Aiden's name was like a sudden splash of water several meters high on the dead lake, psychedelic electrons. The sound sounded again. The emotional jumps of the whole passage are as unpredictable as electronic music that suddenly starts and stops abruptly.

2. There are always a lot of sudden stops in life and there are no following clips. My father played the role of an intruder several times in the film. Pushing open the door, Kayla overreacted in a burst of panic and guilt, and threw the phone to the ground. This action made the viewers and the protagonist relax for a second. Following Kayla's incoherent defense, she revealed a mixture of annoyance and shame. The look on his face, and I couldn't stop laughing when I realized it, it was too realistic.

3. For many people, walking into the mall for the first time without the company of parents or visiting the mall with peers for the first time can be regarded as a ritual in life. It may be the first menstrual period with a girl, Having someone you like for the first time has an extraordinary meaning, because to some extent it means that a child has finally escaped the protection of his parents and entered the adult world. In the movie, Kelly, who is alone in the mall, walks nervously with her head down, as if she is being scrutinized by a stranger. Although no one notices her, her footsteps are very firm.

4. The life experience Kelly shared on social platforms is precisely the most inconsistent problem in her life. The process of growing up is actually a process of constant frustration. Kelly pretends to easily share the problem of growing up in the video. The best answer, but unfortunately every attempt to answer ends in failure, "be yourself", "integrate yourself into the outside world" and "grow up", these questions that torment most people also wear down Kelly's confidence in wanting to change .

    There is nothing touching at all, the sparse campus daily life, the introverted little girl is not pleasing to say. It has won 25 awards and 32 nominations, and 46 media gave it 89 points. Is it true that single-parent families are very popular in the United States. For the rebellious growth of teenagers, it is a well-established chicken soup, and it has no characteristics in the same type. 6 points

    That teenage angst and hopes and dreams are described so real, so beautiful, so heartbroken. Both arc and not particularly optimistic, the feeling of life goes on. There are also such youth films that usually deal with sexual awakening, but this film is invaluable in describing the most ignorant beginning, not so much awakening as "lonely portrayal" and "seeking integration".

Eighth Grade quotes

  • Kayla: But it's like, being yourself is, like, not changing yourself to impress someone else.

  • Mark Day: You're wrong. If you grow up to have a daughter like you, she will make you so so happy. Being your dad makes me so happy, Kayla. You don't know; you don't know how happy you make me. It's beyond... I can't describe it. It's so easy to love you. It's so easy to... to be proud of you. I'm not just saying this. I swear to God, I'm not just saying this. Sure, sometimes if I see you're upset or having a rough day, then I feel sad. But that kind of being sad, that sort of day-to-day sad, or worrying that I do, that's not... Kayla, always beneath all that, I am always so unbelievably happy that I get to be your dad.
