Lick the Star (1998)
7/10
Teenage Angst Coppola Style
27 March 2024
Lick the Star tells the story of a girl, who after some accident, found herself at odds with her cool girl clique. When she saw an opportunity, she spread damaging rumors that broke free the clique but results to their friend being ostracized by their school AND her turning the table right at her.

This is probably the world that Sofia is most knowable of. Its the cool girl eats her cake kind of aesthetic that she tends to really draw herself towards BUT with I tingle of punk aesthetics. Its an interesting style that she went away from her feature films.

This is probably the most I felt that was alive and active in her filmmaking till she'll make Mary Antoinette. There is a weird indifference and isolation in her films that tends to just be sitting on that dries my eyes out. I wish she pursues this style more to be honest.

Good short.
