    Movie Review: Bold, audacious ‘I Saw the TV Glow’ explores fandom, identity and the way we remember

    Schoenbrun has spoken about their own suburban youth in the ‘90s, feeling different but not fully understanding why until years later when they began their own transition. The backstory of Schoenbrun’s own experience is not essential to appreciating their movie, but certainly adds poignancy to some scenes — especially one in which the main character, Owen (Justice Smith, superb), describes the confusion he's been feeling about himself. Similarly, one need not be an aficionado of ’90s cable TV — particularly “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” which Schoenbrun grew up loving — to understand the huge role that fandom plays in the emotional life of Owen and his new friend, Maddy (Brigette Lundy-Paine).
