I Saw the TV Glow
In A24's bold and imaginative indie-horror Sundance hit, two teens bond over a sci-fi TV series which slowly fractures their sense of reality.
Hop Film Now
Teenager Owen (Justice Smith) is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show—a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen's view of reality begins to crack.
An autopsy of reality vs. fiction, Jane Schoenbrun's follow-up to We're All Going to the World's Fair is the kind of film you could pick apart for hours. Childhood nostalgia, obsession, art, identity and the loneliness of adolescence all weave together in this mind-bending tale that has also received praise for "capturing the trans experience with language that only cinema can convey" (The Film Stage).
D: Jane Schoenbrun, US, 2024, 1h40m CC
The film is among the most profound—and, yes, important—pieces of trans fiction that I’ve yet seen, vividly staged with bold, declarative style while remaining beguilingly elusive.
