Mid 90's (2018)
Jonah Hill's Directorial Debut
(Online booking available on Facebook and our website)
Love skateboarding? This is the film for you.
Love a coming-of-age film with a fresh approach? This is the film for you.
Jonah Hill's directorial debut brings a wonderfully natural feel to the tried and tested coming-of-age genre, giving a filter-free insight into the world of these teenagers.
Graced with beautifully naturalistic performances by its young cast, the film is at its best just hanging out with these kids (there’s a killer debate about parents and oral sex). This assemblage of little moments might not seem much but they build into a telling picture of young LA manhood on an unvarnished, candid level. There’s little here that hasn’t been covered by countless teen movies but Hill manages to add details and twists that make it feel fresh. When Sunburn has his first sexual experience, you’d expect a scene of post-game analysis with his bros, but Hill also cuts to a conversation between the girls to offer a different view. It’s a small moment but redolent of the feeling Hill has for his characters and the world they inhabit.
