Synopsis
Snarky high school graduates Enid (Thora Birch) and Rebecca (Scarlett Johansson) find humor in the oddballs and weirdos that surround them, namely record collector Seymour (Steve Buscemi) and wacky art teacher Roberta (Illena Douglas). Based on a graphic novel by Dan Clowes.
I’ve read a few Dan Clowes comics (even met him in person) such as Ghost World, Like a Velvet Glove Cast in Iron, and selected issues of Eightball. The first made a neat film, the second is the only comic where I had an out-of-body experience while reading, and the last “Ice Haven” series played with form in a masterful way that comes with years of comic-making experience.
