We continue our series going through the entire catalog of A24's films. On this episode we are looking at 2015's Barely Lethal directed by Kyle Newman. The film stars Hailee Steinfeld as a teenaged secret agent who runs away to be a regular high schooler but trouble pops up in the form of her rival in Sophie Turner. Joining the show is Jericho Tadeo, The Asian Cut's newest editor!
Our double bill pairings include Agent Cody Banks (Dakota), Harriet the Spy (Rachel) and The Edge of Seventeen (Jericho). See our complete A24 Double Bill Pairings on Letterboxd.
