A scene from Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio

Bones And All (18)
Directed by Luca Guadagnino
★★★

FROM the director of Call Me By Your Name comes a tender yet terribly dark and macabre coming-of-age love story set on a road trip, with a biting twist.

Based on Camille D’Angelis young adult novel of the same name, the film, set in the 1980s, follows 18-year-old Maren (an outstanding Taylor Russell) whose loving father (Andre Holland), at the end of his wits, is forced to leave her due to her increasingly extreme appetites.
