Cinema 10 presents 'Diary of a Teenage Girl' Monday in Potsdam

POTSDAM -- Cinema 10 will present “Diary of a Teenage Girl” Monday, March 28, at 7 p.m. at the Potsdam Roxy Theater.

Director Marielle Heller was the hit of the Sundance Film Festival with this frank look at a precocious teen’s emerging sexuality, “a film with the stuff of life coursing through its veins and sex very much on its brain,” notes Todd McCarthy (The Hollywood Reporter). The girl is Minnie, who is 15 and drawing constantly, her comic strips often becoming full-on animation.

As Minnie engages in explicit sexual activity and clashes with her hippie mother, “this is the rare movie that realizes that individuals are the sum of formative experiences–some good, some bad, and some productive in their devastation” writes Brian Moylan in The Guardian.

The film is 102 minutes long and rated R.

Tickets are $3.50 for students and seniors and $4.50 for general admission.
