I like to see different reactions about this criminally underseen 90s gem. I love this movie and found it hilarious, incredibly sad but also humanistic when I first saw it. One of my all time favorites. I wonder how y’all would feel about Welcome to the Dollhouse and Weiner Dog.

Haha just noticed. I know, right? I like a movie that pushes buttons and with morally complex characters. These are people with deep issues BUT they remain unequivocally human. The movie’s greatest accomplishment. These days young people’s idea of racy or controversial is an episode of game of thrones lol

I thought it was a great movie... 27 years ago. The only parts I remember fondly now are Jon Lovitz and Ben Gazzara.
