Super Inday And The Golden Bibe 

This film is based off of The Diary of a Young Girl, which was written during the Holocaust period.

Every movement becomes a question of identity. To become who we are meant to be. In order to reach that we often have to shed who we once were, and that shedding can sometimes be so brutal it’s ungraceful.

One of the great achievements of this film is its ability to challenge the mind and to force you to try to process information in a different way than you’re used to.

The gentle, emotional nuances of Evan’s coming-of-age story would have been so beneficial to have incorporated into the life of a POC character. Showing a Black, Asian or Latino young man that is afforded the space to be vulnerable, flawed and sensitive while driving a compelling and widely-loved narrative would have been a game changer.

In order to learn why an arguably outdated fanfic trope was resurfacing in the contact zone of popular culture, I dove into a vibrant trough of character development.

The film may be a thriller, but I wasn’t thrilled by it. If anything, I was bored and annoyed.
