Sundance Film Festival: Ten films to watch




The Diary of a Teenage Girl

Alexander Skarsgård (True Blood) and Kristen Wiig (The Skeleton Twins) star in this adaptation of Phoebe Gloeckner’s hit graphic novel directed by ‘one to watch’ Marielle Heller. The coming-of-age tale about a girl attempting to navigate an affair with her mother’s boyfriend is set in 1970s San Francisco, and has been described as a “potentially thorny The Ice Storm-esque drama”. Heller first adapted the book as a stage play before writing the screenplay for her feature debut, which mixes live action and animation and is showing in competition at Sundance.
