Romance Movie Channel #romance movie #long movie #short movie The official trailer for the Netflix original adaptation of Sarah Dessen’s bestselling YA novel introduces Auden West (Emma Pasarow), an introverted recent high school graduate who heads to the idyllic beach town of Colby for the summer before college. Suffering from insomnia since her parents’ divorce, Auden's nights are long and lonely—until she meets Eli (Belmont Cameli), a charming and mysterious fellow insomniac who becomes her nocturnal guide Together, under the starlit sky and in empty streets, they embark on nightly adventures: biking along the beachfront, sneaking into local spots, trying childhood experiences like ice cream parlors, shopping carts rides, and mini-golf, and even wild food fights. These experiences awaken a side of Auden she never knew existed—playful, bold, and free Supported by a warm ensemble cast including Kate Bosworth, Dermot Mulroney, and Andie MacDowell, Auden learns about opening up—both to others and to her own true self. The trailer ends on an emotional note with her declaring, “This is my chance to figure out who I want to be before the rest of my life starts.” The film premieres on Netflix on April 22, 2022 (or May 6 in some regions)
I never really had a chance to be a kid.
I spent most of my time in my mom's world.
What are your plans for the summer, Auden?
I'm spending it with my father and Colby.
She thinks they're gonna bond.
Mom?
My whole life was about school,
which didn't leave me a lot of time for anything else.
But it's the summer before college,
and I want to change that.
So glad you're here.
This is my stepdaughter, Auden.
I didn't mean to scare you.
Sorry, long night.
Aren't they all?
Will you let me make it up to you?
After you.
You're Auden, right?
Scholarship to DeVries?
How do you know all this stuff about me?
Can I let you in on a secret?
I'll be the stranger in Colby.
Think of a bunch of stuff you haven't done,
and just start doing, like, a quest.
We should teach her how to ride a bike.
Everyone knows how to ride a bike.
Are you sure?
Okay, fine.
Every night you go hang out with Eli,
and you never tell us anything about him.
Hey, hey, hey.
I'm sorry.
Everything okay?
Is there something you want to talk about?
Let's go.
This summer you've been pushing me
to be this whole new version of myself,
but you won't tell me anything about who you are.
I think I push people away.
They come off as a little intense.
Life is long, Auden.
It'd be boring if we had to stay
the same versions of ourselves the whole time.
This is my chance to figure out who I want to be
before the rest of my life starts.
