    I hope all those crusty old white male directors know that Mélanie Laurent is coming for them

  • ★★★★ review by davidehrlich on Letterboxd

    Melanie Laurent directs the ungodly *shit* out of this shrewd study of teenage insecurities and psychosexual violence. like BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR but better, more fun, and half as long. and has a long-take for the ages.

  • ★★★★½ review by Anna on Letterboxd

    remember when i thought this was going to be a cute little indie film about teenage gays...

  • ★★★★½ review by Lucy on Letterboxd

    it's scary how accurately this captures the intensity and insanity of relationships between young girls. i hate how much i related to this.

    it's called breathe because you won't be able to during the whole last half hour
