First of all,It's kind of teenagers movie.In Nadine, her role is most abrasive,needy,solipsistic teen character. She is 17 year old who hates her mother and her brother.And she has only one friend at school whose name is Krista.But her friend and her brother fall in love each other.The edge of seventeen is perceptive in showing how teenage friendships,in their fusional intensity and daily commitment,are almost like romantic affairs.When they go south, it's painful and messy.
Secondly,The films strenght is how seriously it takes these people and their fragile emotions even as it tweak's them for gentle laughs and ushers them toward predictable resolutions.
