Like most teenage girls, Minnie Goetze (Bel Powley) is longing for love, acceptance and a sense of purpose in the world. Minnie begins a complex love affair with her mother’s (Kristen Wiig) boyfriend, “the handsomest man in the world,” Monroe Rutherford (Alexander Skarsgård). What follows is a sharp, funny and provocative account of one girl’s sexual and artistic awakening, without judgment. (C) Sony Classics
“THE DIARY OF A TEENAGE GIRL is a breakthrough moment in the culture in that it depicts youthful female sexuality … not just with the unapologetic frankness the boys usually get, but with an awareness of all the places a girl’s urges will take her …” — Ty Burr, The Boston Globe
“Powerful, exhausting, ecstatic, twisted and unerringly honest, THE DIARY OF A TEENAGE GIRL is a rare film indeed, a look at a young girl’s messy coming of age told completely from the young girl’s point of view.” — Tom Long, Detroit News
