DAYDREAM NATION: 3 ½ STARS

daydream_nation_2Daydream Nation chronicles the year in Carolyn Wexler’s (Kat Dennings) life in which “everything happened.” A precocious teen she seduces her handsome English teacher (Josh Lucas) by writing an essay about her favorite historical figure—Monika Lewinsky. She’s a savvy big city girl, but hasn‘t quite figured out life or love in her new town. Complicating matters is an amorous gym teacher, a serial killer and a sweet but troubled boy named Thurston (Reese Thompson). Textured with equal parts humor and drama this smart school story cleverly details the complicated, confusing aspects of teen life in a fresh, interesting way.
