Stargirl

I read this book several times with students and really enjoyed the fun upbeat characters. Loved the story. Loved the coming of age tale. The movie cut short the story to the point that the characters had little appeal. Stargirl is a tough person to cast. The casting was good but the feel of Stargirl was not there. The audio had some weird things going on, the editing was choppy and had a feel of throwing things together over a weekend. Love the book, wanted to love the movie.

This film has zero connection to the childhood experience. Kids aren't like this. Be more relatable. 2/10 for doing the assignment. Go out into the world & meet the people.
