“Another Girl” (** out of four) was an overly bland teenage melodrama about a disaffected high-school student (Samantha Hanratty) battling depression and anxiety and becomes increasingly obsessed with the female heroine of a novel she’s reading and soon begins to believe this character is real which starts to blur the lines between allusion and reality for her. Some nice directorial touches from director Allison Burnett fail to sustain this story which is just too plodding and odd to come together. Hanratty’s sincere performance is a definite plus but you’d best pick “another” movie.
