The Spectacular Now
Based on the novel by Tim Tharp, "The Spectacular Now" is the story of Sutter Keely (Miles Teller) - high school senior, effortless charmer, and self-proclaimed "life of the party" - and of how he unexpectedly falls in love with "nice girl" Aimee Fineky (Shailene Woodley). While Aimee dreams of the future, Sutter lives in the now. And yet somehow, they're drawn together. What starts as an unlikely romance becomes a sharp-eyed, straight-up snapshot of the heady confusion and haunting passion of youth - one that doesn't look for tidy truths.
