Review
Death is what mainly pre-occupies
little Vada Sultenfuss (Anna Chlumsky), who is about to hit puberty
with all the usual insecurities – and a few additional ones to boot.
She is handled sensitively by veteran director Howard Zieff, who
directs this coming-of-age film just on the right side of
manipulative and reels home a cute, funny, and at times poignant
tear-jerker. Utilizing Laurice Elehwany's script, he is not afraid
to demonstrate his fondness for the spirit of the sexual revolution.
Chlumsky gives a spirited, intelligent performance in her feature
film debut. She stands out among a fine cast.
