Welcome to the Dollhouse (1995)

Director: Todd Solondz
Writer:    Todd Solondz
Cast:       Heather Matarazzo, Victoria Davis, Christina Brucato

Insightful look at an unattractive 7th grader as she struggles to cope with un-attentive parents, snobbish classmates, a smart older brother, an attractive younger sister, and her own insecurities.

It is Todd Solondz' first major film and as is usual with his films it is filled with characters for which we won't feel any sympathy. A very dark comedy on bullying and the bullied.

Rating: 4/5
