A Part of You

Movies watched in 2024

A Part of You (2024, Sweden)

Director: Sigge Eklund

Writer: Michaela Hamilton

Mini-review:

I must admit this surprised me quite a bit; it didn't go down the route I expected when it was announced. All in all, it's a very solid movie about grief. It's certainly not groundbreaking nor revolutionary, but it approaches its themes with enough sensitivity and confidence to separate itself from other similar movies. And the entire cast delivers on every single scene, giving some truly impressive performances, no matter how much screentime they get. So yeah, while A Part of You is not always an easy watch, it's a pretty strong entry in the teen movie genre.

I encourage every writer to write the book that only you can write. It’s one thing to be respectful of trends, but it’s another to express your unique viewpoint in your book. Don’t be a copycat. … The last thing I want is to see something and feel, 'Didn’t I just read this someplace else?'
