Share is a 2019 coming-of-age [2] drama film, written and directed by Pippa Bianco, based upon Bianco's short film of the same name. It stars Rhianne Barreto, Charlie Plummer, Poorna Jagannathan, J. C. Mackenzie, Nicholas Galitzine, and Lovie Simone.
It had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 25, 2019. It was released on July 27, 2019, by HBO Films.
Mandy, a 16-year-old girl, receives text messages from her friends about a video that has gone viral. In the video, she is obviously unconscious. Her pants have been pulled down and she is surrounded by a group of chuckling boys. She remembers none of this. As she seeks to find out what happened, she is ostracized. [3] [4]
In May 2015, it was announced that Pippa Bianco was adapting her short Share (winner, Cinéfondation section, Cannes 2015) into a feature-length screenplay. [5] [6] In January 2016, the Sundance Institute picked up the film for their Screenwriters Lab. [7] In March 2017, it was announced A24 would distribute the film, with newcomer Rhianne Barreto cast in the lead role. [8] In October 2017, Charlie Plummer, Poorna Jagannathan, J. C. Mackenzie, Lovie Simone and Nicholas Galitzine had been cast in the film, with Carly Hugo, Tyler Byrne and Matthew Parker serving as producers. [9] [10]
Principal photography began in October 2017, in Toronto, Canada. [11]
The music score was done by electronic musician Shlohmo, his first work in film scoring.
The film received The ReFrame Stamp for Gender-Balanced Production. [12]
The film had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 25, 2019. [13] Shortly after, HBO Films acquired distribution rights to the film. [14] It was released on July 27, 2019. [15]
Share received positive reviews from film critics. It holds an 86% approval rating on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, based on 28 reviews, with an average rating of 7/10. The website's critics consensus reads: "Grim yet compelling, Share avoids rote didacticism thanks to sensitive direction and committed central performances." [16] On Metacritic, the film holds a rating of 73 out of 100, based on reviews from 8 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". [17]
