If you loved McFarland, USA, try Stargirl

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Drama / Family territory. If that's the register that drew you to McFarland, USA, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Stargirl is

A 2020 teen dramedy tries too hard to be *The Breakfast Club*, only with ukuleles. A meek high schooler falls for the school’s eccentric new girl, who drags them into improbable concerts and existential hallway epiphanies. The result is oddly earnest, like a pep rally for kids who skipped theirs.
