Title from title frames
Oscar-winner Charlize Theron stars as Mavis Gary, a 37-year-old former prom queen, and current writer of young adult novels, who returns home to relive her glory days and win back her now-married high school sweetheart (Patrick Wilson). When she finds her homecoming more challenging than expected, Mavis forms an unusual bond with a former classmate (Patton Oswalt) and both must face the harsh realities of growing up in this brilliant and bittersweet one-of-a kind comedy. Nominated for a **Golden Globe** for Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture - Comedy or Musical. Official Selection at the **Berlin International Film Festival**. "*There is a raw honesty here rare in movies, and it's very funny too.*" - Cath Clarke, ***Time Out***
