At this year’s Ebertfest, the one film I was looking forward to more than any was The Spectacular Now, written by Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Weber (500 Days of Summer) and directed by James Ponsoldt. It has been praised as the most realistic, teen/high school relationship movie you could ever expect to find, something that would “change the way high school movies would ever be made again.” Found that on IMDB. I don’t know if that’s what I saw, but if it is what I saw, then I hope something else comes along to change everything again.
