So, 'Performer' is this unsettling 2019 drama that dives into the mind of a high school kid named Tim. The film captures that raw, chaotic energy of senior year—parties, exams, first dates. But what sets it apart is Tim's disturbing side; he documents his toxic masculinity through these self-made videos. The pacing kind of lingers, almost mirroring Tim's descent, and the atmosphere is thick with tension. It's not your usual high school flick—much darker themes here, exploring isolation and anger. The performances, especially from the lead, thread this fine line between relatable teen angst and something much more sinister. It's definitely a challenging watch, but there's a certain boldness in its approach to a tough subject.
