Alana is 28, she lets it slip by accident in the scene with Bradly cooper. The detail that Alena is lying about her age makes her seem like a lot more tragic of a character, the way she acts towards the older men she works with is so infantilising, when she kisses Gary at the end, it feels as if she finally abandons growing up. It reminds me of my own trouble dealing with nostalgia. Everything about this film is nostalgic, the name, the setting etc, the older men, Alana, PTA. I'm almost 22 and I get how Alana feels, aging out of girlhood is difficult and complicated, especially after the pandemic stole a couple of years. You're really entertaining to listen to btw, glad I found your channel.
