The latest story of teenagers in love but also with at least one on the verge of death, All the Bright Places is the latest young-adult weeper to hit the screen with some superfluous lens flares, a near-kiss silhouette, and a handwritten title treatment.
Twenty-somethings Elle Fanning and Detective Pikachu‘s Justice Smith star as high schoolers having a hard time facing their demons. Fanning’s Violet has survivor’s remorse over her sister’s car crash death, and Smith’s Finch has bipolar disorder and suicide-level depression. It’s a fun one!
You can yearn for those halcyon days of girls falling in love with hunky vampires and werewolves when All the Bright Places hits Netflix February 28.
