Alien at the Movies

The Half of It

In this modern day Cyrano de Bergerac twist, a petite, shy, introverted, & smart Ellie Chu is pestered by an inarticulate football player Paul Munsky to write a letter for him to his crush Aster Flores. This comedy/drama centers around an awkward high school love triangle in the small town of Squahamish. This is a cute & charming coming of age story where these teens are trying to figure out who they are & where they are going. Leah Lewis who plays Ellie is terrific as the driving force of the film.

Alien gives it 3 “Chugga, Chugga, Chu, Chu” stars out of 4.
