344. Lady Bird - Leaving Cert 2023 (#---)

Summary: Hosted by Andrew Quinn, Darren Mooney and Conor Murphy, The 250 is a weekly trip through some of the best (and worst) movies ever made, as voted for by Internet Movie Database Users. New episodes are released Saturdays at 6pm GMT. This September, we are running a season looking at the films on the Irish Leaving Cert English Curriculum. So this week, Greta Gerwig's Lady Bird. Going by the name "Lady Bird", Christine McPherson begins her final year of high school in Sacramento, California. Caught in a tense love-hate relationship with her mother, Marion, Christine dreams of escaping her surroundings to go to college. However, over the course of that turbulent year, Christine becomes more aware of life outside herself. At time of recording, it was not ranked on the list of the best movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
