Interesting and engaging would be the two words if you were asked to describe the film in just a second. I believe the film leaves no effort in putting things in the most genuine way possible. The film beautifuly depicts the 70's and its quite believable as you witness the settings, the costumes etc. Reasonable performence from almost everyone in the film, specially Christina Ricci as the curious young girl. She delivers an excellent performence, very genuinely shows a sexual maturity in a young girl. Her friendship with Sandy, her relationship with her father is believable and you can't take your eyes off her. The film will definately grab your attention and you will definately feel you are witnessing a family next door.
