So, 'The First Time' is an interesting gem from '83 that blends comedy with the quirks of film school life. The film centers on a young student who seems to be forever chasing after this woman, all while navigating the eccentricities of his film professor, who’s like a wild card. The pacing isn’t too brisk, allowing you to soak in those awkward moments that just scream student life. The atmosphere is light yet tinged with that nervous energy of first love and artistic ambition. I mean, it feels like a time capsule of the '80s indie vibe with some practical effects that are endearingly dated. The performances have this raw charm—definitely not Hollywood polished, but it works for what it is.
