Janet Planet A24 Movie Review | Furman On Film
In this week's movie review Furman On Film brings you Janet Planet, the debut feature film from playwright-turned-director Annie Baker. Set in 1991 Massachusetts, this coming-of-age story follows an 11-year-old girl, Lacy, as she navigates her complex relationship with her mother, Janet, a granola-loving acupuncturist. We explore the film's rich themes, from memory and adolescence to the subtle yet profound struggles of adulthood. While Baker's understated style offers some poignant moments, does Janet Planet manage to keep us engaged, or does it leave us wanting more? Watch the full review to find out if this slow-burn character study is worth your time.
