It recalls a Harmony Korine movie, minus the freak-show vibe; there’s even a Korine-esque daydream sequence, wherein Teddy imagines himself as Where The Wild Things Are’s Max.

It might not feel fresh but Palo Alto feels real, honest and moving. An impressive debut by an exciting new talent.

The suburban existentialism explored in Palo Alto isn’t anything new, but the experience is nonetheless refreshing due to the directorial talent evident in Gia Coppola’s promising debut.
