My Girl (1991) is one of those movies that lingers long after the credits roll. At its core, it's a coming-of-age story that beautifully captures childhood innocence, friendship, and the tough lessons that come with growing up. The plot unfolds naturally, taking its time to let you connect with the characters, making the emotional moments hit even harder. It balances lighthearted humor with deeper themes without ever feeling forced, making it more than just a typical family drama.

The directing by Howard Zieff keeps everything grounded, allowing the story to breathe and feel real. The cine... read the rest.
