All the Real Girls

Rated 4.0 David Gordon Green’s second feature (after the excellent George Washington) stars Zooey Deschanel in an incredible performance as a young woman struggling with the uncertainties of first love. Paul Schneider is her equal as a confused former ladies’ man feeling like he wants to settle down for the first time. There are scenes in this film that simply float from one to another. Green’s pacing and use of music are breathtaking. Deschanel proves to be one of the best young actresses currently on the scene.
