YES. She is awesome. I really geeked out about the fact that she had a short in the anthology.

Couldn't agree with you more here.

Also a very charming coming-of-age flick with some delightful lead characters. Looooved Ezra Miller. He was as lovable in this movie as he was frightening in "We need to talk about Kevin". This one also had me in tears a few times. Maybe im just a big softy??

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who saw this and enjoyed it. I think it really flew under the radar. I read the book AGES ago and I was reticent to watch the movie because of how much the book resonated among my friends... But I thought the adaptation was great, Emma Watson was utterly charming, and Ezra Miller was so fantastic. It was great to see him in this context where he's really cute and likable vs. We Need to Talk About Kevin where he was utterly and effectively creepy - I want to see more of him.
