Message: [QUOTE="nwhoopfan, post: 5111751, member: 7894"] "My Old A**" is now on Amazon Prime. Not what I expected, but that's probably good. Nice when trailers don't give away the entire movie. Maisy Stella plays the younger version and Aubrey Plaza the older version of the same person. Yeah, they look nothing like each other, don't worry about it. Maisy can't wait to leave home to go to college in Toronto. Her family are cranberry farmers in a small town on a GORGEOUS lake (had to look it up, Muskoka Lakes in Ontario). During a trip on mushrooms the two versions encounter each other and have a conversation. Aubrey gives some advice to her younger self. You don't see much of Aubrey after that. While Maisy thought leaving home will be the best thing in the world, based on what Aubrey told her and a revelation she gains about halfway through, she begins to gain more of an appreciation for her family and the life she's led up to that point. I thought Maisy was fantastic in this, she really carried the movie. Looking at imdb apparently she hasn't appeared in anything since Nashville wrapped up in 2018. She does have some more stuff coming out soon. Like I mentioned Aubrey wasn't on screen much but she was good in her role. Various actors in small supporting roles were fine. Maddie Ziegler was also in this, although barely, so this featured a couple actresses who have been on screen for most of their lives. Percy Hynes White also has a lengthy credit list for a guy in his early 20s. It adds a nice touch that director Megan Park and lead actress Maisy both grew up near where this movie was filmed. Viva Canada! The lake itself is basically another character in the movie. I want to go there now. [/QUOTE]
