from A24 On The Rocks · host A24 On The Rocks

On this week's A24 On The Rocks we have special guest Luke Londo on to review A24's fifth film: the 2013 coming of age drama The Spectacular Now, starring Miles Teller and Shailene Woodley. This group of cinephiles discuss the themes of this adaptation, reminiscing on their own high school experiences, and how a rom-com on the surface turned into a melancholy tale of addiction. How does this movie fit in the A24 catalogue and what letter grade will they give it? Caution: movie spoilers.
