Coming-of-age movies like My Old Ass have been a popular genre since the 1950s when James Dean starred in Rebel without a Cause (1955). While we tend to think of the genre as exploring adolescence, the concept of ‘coming-of age’ is about evolving and growing as a person, not just transitioning from your teenage years into adulthood.
When watching the trailer for My Old Ass, think about how the theme of ‘coming-of-age’ is explored and who it’s relating to. Do you think the trailer is successful in conveying its genre to the audience? Who do you think the trailer will appeal to?
The film is rated 15, but remember that trailers can have a different age rating to the feature.
