Sundance 2017: 'Before I Fall' Review


I'll give Before I Fall this: It's probably the smartest YA adaptation in a while. But I'm going to stop short of saying I liked it. The film follows the exploits of a popular teen girl (Zoey Deutch, on the far left) who discovers that she's repeating the same day over and over again. It's Groundhog Day for the high-school set ... although it's more emotional than expected. I reviewed the film for Paste.
