Alex Strangelove

About This Movie

So, 'Alex Strangelove' is this charming little indie flick that dives into the awkwardness of teenage life and self-discovery. The tone is light, often funny, but it carries a thread of sincerity that resonates. Alex, played by Daniel Zolghadri, is relatable in his confusion about love and sexuality. The pacing is pretty laid-back, allowing moments of genuine reflection amidst the chaos of high school shenanigans. The performances are solid; you feel the chemistry between Alex and his girlfriend, and then there’s Elliot, who adds this intriguing layer of complexity. Plus, the house party scene—it’s like a rite of passage, but with a twist. It’s not your typical coming-of-age story, which is what makes it stand out.

Great exploration of sexuality and identity.Unique blend of humor and heart.Not your average teen comedy.
