That film is OK at best and I challenge anyone to tell me which parts they found in any way memorably affecting or even just... fresh

man you dumped some spice on that take. bare minimum, it was a love letter to a city that has been treated as an also-ran to bakersfield for most of it's life.

OK and that's great, but like, man, to most audiences they won't be able to tell it's not set in the familiar environs of SoCal. Sorry but it's true. Even the sense of place felt half-assed to me as an outsider

it's very relatable because it's intensely bland

I don't think it's healthy to project oneself into art too much, and this is definitely a work that's basically a psychic foam mattress; it just reifies whatever feelings the watcher has about their own coming of age instead of adding meaning or inviting reflection
