Foxfire review

The American dream gets a going-over in Laurent Cantet’s (Palme d’or winner The Class ) absorbing adap of Joyce Carol Oates’ novel.

Set in a mid-’50s small town in upstate New York, it follows the Foxfire gang: led by charismatic Legs (Raven Adamson), they’re a group of female teens fighting male oppression.

Dreamily narrated by shy Maddy (Kate Coseni), Cantet’s film avoids period nostalgia, paying attention to the solidarity and tensions in the proto-feminist band as they struggle to break the shackles of mainstream society.
