In this episode, me and my sister hop on our bikes and ride back to the summer of 1970 while we revisit the absolute banger that is Now and Then—a nostalgic coming-of-age classic that’s equal parts heartwarming and heart-wrenching.
We explore how this beloved 1995 film captures the complexities of girlhood, friendship, and the sometimes awkward, often magical transition into adulthood. From seances in cemeteries to first kisses and family drama, we dive into the film's powerful themes, standout performances, and why it still resonates decades later.
Plus, we unpack how Now and Then carved out a space for female-driven narratives in a genre so often dominated by boys. Get ready for some major ‘90s feels.
