Weird Is Who's Not Weird

About This Movie

Weird Is Who's Not Weird is a curious little gem from 2015 that dives into the complexities of attraction. The film's tone is awkward yet earnest, capturing that high school-esque vibe of unspoken feelings and unexpected connections. Alex’s infatuation with Samuel plays out in a way that feels both relatable and a bit surreal, with an undercurrent of tension as he wrestles with his best friend's warnings. The pacing is a bit slow at times, which actually enhances the build-up of emotions, giving you that anxious feeling when your heart's on the line. Practical effects are minimal, but the performances feel genuine, making the characters' struggles hit home. It’s that slice-of-life, coming-of-age kind of story that doesn’t shy away from the gray areas of love.
