Movie Review - Tart

Available for a limited time on Hulu, you can watch the 2001 movie Tart starring Dominique Swain, with appearances by Brad Renfro, Bijou Phillips, Mischa Barton and Lacey Chabert.

In a movie about losing yourself, and what exactly you would sacrifice of your beliefs to fit in, you get a teen drama that's got substantial more lasting power than one would expect. Enough integrity to actually comment on society, and a plot line similar to what would happen if you mixed Cruel Intentions and Gossip Girl. A little dark, definitely twisted... but the slowish start beginning might make it seem more vapid than it really is. Worth a watch all the way through, or you miss the point.
