Paul Mescal stars as a young divorcee in the 90s-set coming-of-age film from Barry Jenkins and A24, full of beachside antics and melancholy nostalgia.
Calum Paterson worries about his daughter. The tai chi-practising divorcee is an anxious and attentive father: he teaches her self-defence, delivers anti–smoking lectures she knows so well she can recite them by heart, and scrupulously dabs her face with aftersun lotion at the end of each summer day they spend together on holiday in Turkey.
At the tender age of 11, Sophie is on the cusp of adolescence, watching with wide-eyed interest and a touch of hunger as her older peers order tall glasses of cold beer and kiss each other clumsily. But Sophie feels secure enough with her father to speak honestly about her desires and misgivings, and Calum – a single thirty-something often mistaken for her brother – can laugh with his precocious daughter about things like crushing on her pretty schoolteacher.
