WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

On the first day of senior year, 17-year-old Henry Page (Abrams) meets transfer student Grace Town (Reinhart). When the two of them are assigned to co-edit the school newspaper together, they start to grow a special bond, but when Henry learns of the heart-breaking secret she is keeping, he finds himself falling for her – or at least, the person he thinks she is…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

Riverdale star Lili Reinhart and rising young actor Austin Abrams make for a compelling young couple in this tear-jerking teen romance from the writer and director of the equally romantic Southside with You.
