Teenage females are psychopaths, Eleanor (Maya Hawke) says in the movie Do Revenge.
Many directors have succumbed to this throughout the years by producing high school movies that are more about “coming of rage” than about growing up.
Bullying, exclusion, and stereotyping are just a few of the issues that are discussed. As evidence, look no further than Riverdale and 13 Reasons Why.
All the criteria are checked, except murder, however, it is clear that Alfred Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train had a significant effect.
This movie has elements of Mean Girls meets Strangers on a Train meets John Tucker Must Die, yet it never forgets to have fun.
Drea Torres (Camila Mendes) is the head girl at Rosehill Country Day, a typical high school in the United States.
She belongs to the elite group and is in a relationship with Max (Austin Abrams), the popular lad. She is all a girl dreams of being until she isn’t.
Drea becomes a social outcast when Max releases one of her videos and the school doesn’t hold him accountable.
The ‘awkward’ but brave Eleanor, who comes to Rosehill to confront the agonizing memories of her first crush exposing her in public, is now presented to us.
At this point, Hitchcock enters the picture when Drea and Eleanor decide to stage a Rosehill version of Strangers on a Train.
