The part where the go from fighting to fawning over a dress is my favorite bit of the movie.

I can’t remember the last time I saw female characters shopping in a thrift store. This movie is so real !

[kataminedj]

The thrift store scenes alone shows the sheer talent the director Greta has. Lady Bird does human interaction better than any other 2017 film, and honestly Greta should have gotten best director

[dfg]

She's an amazing screenwriter and now a director!

[jacobandersson]

I love that the director is a woman cause there so few female directors in film industry today

[TraceysShadow]

I absolutely loved this scene. My mom/sister and I would go shopping together and it can be so frustrating so we'd bicker but seeing a promising outfit would make us be friends again.

[samanraiii]

[andif]

The interaction in this scene is a parent/child relationship in a nutshell!

[mariannedalida]

This sucks I will have to wait til feb before I get to watch this in cinemas

[dahqc]

Sucks this film's not showing in our country

[fembot]

Her mother has NPD. Anyone who has a mom like this knows the destruction they cause. They hate the core of you so you end up hating the core of you.
