Welcome back friends! We're reliving our high school glory days this week as we discuss the coming of age comedy, The Edge of Seventeen. This slice of life stars Hailee Steinfeld as a wallflower trying to find her place in the world after great betrayal. This week we discuss the nuances of coming of age stories, style within the genre, the masculinity pyramid that exists within the story, and much more.
