Second take
Today's film is a take on high school rumor mongering and adolescent cruelty.
And it is very funny.
With a deft light hand Will Gluck writes and directs
with Emma Stone, Penn Badgley, Stanley Tucci and Patricia Clarkson.
I got to see this again because I saw a clip from it on line somewhere/.
It is a very funny scene with Tucci and Clarkson in their kitchen when they tell the little black kid he is adopted. All present react with astonishment.
There are a lot of good jokes and Badgely is as studly as ever and I had a good time. Technically this would be a 5 as I saw it a second time but I didn't know I would the first time so it doesn't really qualify but I might actually see it a third time in which case that makes it a 4.
Here is my favorite scene, the one that got me back to see this movie.
