CGiii Comment

Four years on and Salky re-makes his dreadful short into a feature - was it worth the effort (and time)?

In a word: NO - most definitely not, this sterile, stereotypical balderdash will end up giving you excruciating toothache.

May Salky and Brind split and never work again - instead of dishing-up this rich-kid idealistic tripe.

Does Alan Cumming ever refuse a role? He really should learn to choose more wisely.

The(ir) Blurb...

It's the final semester before graduating from high school, and aspiring actress and good girl Alexa, her outcast gay best friend Ben, and loner bad boy Johnny, go outside their comfort zones, and throw caution to the wind as they venture into unfamiliar young adult sexual grounds. A bumpy ride of high emotion, betrayal, heartbreak, and sexual experimentation.
