Heathers

Sometimes a film can be a signpost, different each time you come to it. Last time I watched Heathers, about six years ago, its razor-sharp, barbed edge and midnight-black satire still had an immediacy to it; this time, the primary register for me was nostalgic, a reflection of the different point in my life that I'm at...six years is a long time.
