The movie should come with trigger warnings for body dysmorphia and eating disorders. Although Brittany Snow does a wonderful job of representing them, the theme might be too much to deal with for some people.Okay, now that put aside, the performances in the movie were so beautiful. This kind of theme was elegantly depicted and to think that it was a directional debut certainly shows so much promise. Despite the erratic pacing and passage of time generally thrown at the audience through exposition, after a momentary whiplash, the scene brings you right back into it. I really loved character development of Riley and Nathan and even the minor characters for that matter. The movie did a wonderful job of showing both, what people suffering from mental illness go through and what people who care for them go through. Kudos.

This rom-dram revolves around a young woman who suffers from a mental illness that is becoming all too common in today's social media driven world, and a young man who cares for her unconditionally. The film tackles important subject matter in raw fashion, while enabling its performers to step out of their supporting roles and truly demonstrate their craft.
