ACOFAE Podcast Presents: The Virgin Suicides: "Obviously, Doctor, you've never been a 13-year-old girl." There are a few things on ACOFAE that stay 100% consistent: love of sisterhood, female empowerment, and freedom being just a few. So it would be a fair assumption that both Laura Marie and Jessica Marie would love this movie. This movie being about sisterhood and freedom, or the lack-thereof. Cue the surprise of a lifetime and the start of some excellent discussions about what it is to be a child, what it is to be an adult, and how hard it is to look back through nostalgia with fresh eyes. The Virgin Suicides gives us a dreamy, female centric aesthetic that tries it's best to show the elusive world of girlhood in all it's beauty and horror. Where it truly succeeds in leaping bounds is in showing us that boys (later men), even if they try, will never understand what it is to be a 13 year old girl.
