Chicken nuggets, grilled cheese, and a peanut butter milkshake. Old-school American comforts to soothe your pre-teen angst while streaming Eighth Grade. This is our latest menu from our dinner-and-a-movie series with a24.
Eighth GradeWhat could be more mortifying, for an eighth grader, than the agony of eating lunch alone? How about a school-wide assembly where you get an award for"Most Quiet"? Welcome to the excruciating but amusing life of 13-year-old Kayla , the star of writer/director Bo Burnham's 2018 filmKayla is a child of the internet. In between active shooter drills and playing the cymbals in the school band, Kayla vlogs.
Home is also no haven. Kayla lives alone with her father, who she goes to great lengths to avoid by focusing on her phone. At the dinner table, he actually has to throw food at her to get her attention. At first, nervousness gets in the way. Gabe doesn’t know if he should reheat the nuggets in the microwave, and worries that two of every kind of sauce isn’t enough. But they eventually relax, and toast to friendship.
