AT THE MOVIES - "Eighth Grade"

"Eighth Grade’ captures our need to connect" PBS NewsHour 8/3/2018

Excerpt

SUMMARY:  Following a week in the life of a middle schooler, the new film "Eighth Grade" sets the familiar fumblings of adolescence against the constant glare of a glowing screen or Snapchat filter.  Jeffrey Brown takes a look at why it’s drawing strong critical praise for its raw portrayal of the challenges of being a teenager in the digital age.
