Drama When Miss Stevens chaperones three of her students - Billy, Margot and Sam - on a weekend trip to a drama competition, she discovers that coming of age stories aren't just for teenagers. Exploring the fine line between being a grown up and being a kid, MISS STEVENS looks at the moment you realize maybe you're the responsible adult in the room, and what comes after you find out you're not who you thought you'd be.

	Author	Review
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"This sweet indie dramedy teaches the genre a valuable lesson (...) This is a film that’s at its best when it speaks its mind and lays its cards on the table"	POS
United States	Stephen Holden The New York Times	"Modest, warmhearted (...) Ms. Rabe’s beautifully balanced performance reminds you that people never really grow up."	POS
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"A smartly layered performance by Lily Rabe distinguishes Julia Hart's involving if somewhat pat dramedy (...) A solid calling card for Hart"	POS
United States	Glenn Kenny rogerebert.com	"A low-key and intelligent character study, 'Miss Stevens' doesn’t escape from its indie-film commonplaces often enough to become really distinctive (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	NEU
United States	Richard Brody The New Yorker	"[The script] defines the students schematically (...) [Rachel’s] tense discussions with Walter (...) offer substance to ponder beyond the story’s narrow limits."	NEU
