Sweet, a little silly, a little sad, very engrossing and believable tale about two 14 year old girls running blithely around a Salinger-esque New York City. A gentle 1964 version of Ghost World (indeed, the poster of “Henry Orient” is on Enid’s wall if you freeze the DVD) with Peter Sellers in the Steve Buscemi role. Plus Angela Landsbury, Tom Bosley, Grampa Al Lewis and John Fiedler (you’ll know him when you see him) rounding out the great cast.
