But this update of \u201c<strong>The Crucible<\/strong>\u201d uses wiggy costumes and snappy dialogue, not spells and special effects, to represent the apocalyptic emotions of teenagers. A girl dresses like a \u201cDavid Bowie bird\u201d; the sun glows, giant against the treeline, that golden edge-of-adulthood sun you\u2019ll never see again. The girls come together to share secrets and cope with the painful family situations they won\u2019t reveal to anyone else. Their club is more \u201cpersonal with a dash of politics\u201d than personal-political, but even so, this movie is the closest thing I\u2019ve found to what it was like to be in Riot Grrrl. I have some criticisms: The movie repeatedly suggests that some of the girls will be gay, or will reveal experiences of sexual assault, but if memory serves those things don\u2019t happen; that felt like a bait-and-switch or a lost opportunity. But mostly this is a beautiful film about teen girls in the age of Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s honest and touching and melodramatic. You\u2019ll laugh.
