Mostly filmed right here in Sacramento, California. People are taking selfies in front of the blue house in the fabulous 40's, a fancy neighborhood. I hope to see it soon.

I’m hoping to go tomorrow when all seats are $8 since some of my teenagers might want to go. It’s been awhile since I’ve been excited to see something!

We saw the movie today. I was expecting to be blown away by the reviews. I would say it was a nice little movie about a 17 yo going trhough what 17 yo's go through. I would call it a 'chick flick' but I think any parent who has raised a teenager would enoy it and may be a little emotional.

Is this movie about Lady Bird Johnson?

@proudlyfromNJ ... That's what I thought when I saw the title but the description doesn't sound like it.

Not at all, its ia a quirky "coming of age" film.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I saw it and I did like it, but was not blown away.   I went because of the rave reviews.

I also thought it was called Lady Bird because of Lady Bird Johnson, but it wasn't.

@EastCoastGal, count me as someone who doesn't have a clue, I was thinking who wants to see a movie about her? I live in NYC and was listening to WCBS FM ,@proudlyfromNJ, you must be familiar with Scott Shannon. Anyway Scott (DJ) was walking with Brad (he works with him) they were talking about this film. Scott thought as we did, Brad had to stop walking he was laughing so hard!

I've seen the preview a few times at the movies and it looks good. But I haven't seen it yet. And I love Saoirse Ronan.
