I Used to Go Here (2020)
The very strange remark !
This is for people who have seen the film, so...
Apart from the embarrassing and obvious trope of Kate fretting over her ex-on social media .... seriously is there any other story in modern dramas?...And the trope of her being a writer and the trope of her returning to her past...
Kris Rey, the writer/director, incidentally she's the new girlfriend on Kate's ex's Instagram ,also created a strange cold moment when Kate and the students , are swimming.
The young guy reveals that he has read an old piece of Kate's . An essay about her dead brother..
Young Guy: I wish I could write like that.
Kate : It's not really my style any more, it's out of fashion.
Is she a goddam droid !? Is he ? No follow up questions ? No, sympathy ?
Nope, just a quick follow up chat about getting high then some splashing about with a football. It is never mentioned again and has no impact on the story.
Any sympathy I had for the character 'Kate' vanished when I realised she was indifferent to genuine tragedy and simply used it to try further her unsuccessful writing career. 15 years to write her first book..why the rush ?
Also , while you're here, although the cast is multi ethic , she only has proper long scenes with other white people. Which seemed odd.
