MISTRESS AMERICA

A lonely college freshman’s life is turned upside down by her impetuous, adventurous soon-to-be stepsister. —IMDB

Very hit and miss. Lola Kirke, who plays Tracey, the Greta Gerwig character’s friend, is the outstanding actor in the movie and keeps it grounded. The story makes some witty observations of modern youth culture but the whole thing is too fast paced and all over the place — too many ideas too quickly. The story has no clear structure even though there is a thin backbone of a narrative. Mildly entertaining.
