Between 1923 and 1928, two men collaborated on a series of four books - "When We Were Very Young", "Winnie-the-Pooh", "The House at Pooh Corner" and "Now We Are Six" - which have since become classics in the field of children's literature. This film tells the story of the men and how those books came into being.

Despite its glaring flaws, First Girl I Loved is not entirely undeserving of a watch. For people who can handle the more difficult aspects of the story and graphic scenes, it is worth looking into. It’s not a film worthy of rewatch, but it may still resonate somewhat with those who need a story like this. It is a genuine, if flimsy attempt at a coming-of-age tale. Were the film to be directed by someone with experiences more similar to Anne, it would likely be more powerful--as it is, it feels like a man’s perspective of what it means to come to terms with your identity as a lesbian.
