On Pointe (2018)
glorifies eating disorders and contains bad acting

This movie glorifies eating disorders. The main character in fact never really eats during the movie and claims to eat only carrots and *yes* instead of passing out cold receives a contract. At the end of the film I thought she was finally going to eat, but she picks up a muffin and just puts it down in a classic disordered eating fashion. It's possible the the movie writers were just this clueless and didn't care about the triggering nature of the film or in glorifying eating disorders to young dancers, but that's just highly irresponsible behavior.
Oh, and while the young dancer is beautiful, the acting is really wooden.
