Those who hoped for a realistic adaptation of Emily’s life will be disappointed. Modern music and language, to stick to the modernity that we attribute to Emily, will certainly upset a lot of people. But who cares. The result is delightful. Well, ok, it can sometimes look like a teen movie for teenagers, but nothing prevents another director from taking an interest in the reclusive Emily and offering a very depressing movie. That’ll be an average.
And let's not forget Hailee Steinfeld!
8/10
