When You Finish Saving The World | Official Trailer HD | A24

The mom telling the son as to why he's so different from when he was a kid, and the son only saying "sorry" feels so relatable. It's those times where it's hard to explain because you know they'd overreact if you tell more.

Coming-of-age A24 films are unparalleled

As the mother of a 14 year old boy, I can tell this movie is going to be amazing. I cried just from the trailer. I love how this is going to be from both the mom's perspective and the son's. I am an idealist and I raised my son to be one of the one's who defied the odds and used compassion to change the world. His behavior as a young child led me to create expectations. However, my teenager helped me to see that those types of expectations aren't empowering, they are crushing for him and for me. I've learned to see the things he is doing are beautiful and impactful--just in a different way than I expected. And that who I thought he was at age 6 is not who he is at age 14 and it won't be who he is at age 20. I needed to let go of the expectations and just love him unconditionally and provide advice when I have something helpful to say. And most importantly realize that I'm still changing too. The best scene in this trailer is when the mother is telling her son in the car what she had thought he was going to be, but he isn't that at all, and he says "sorry about that." He says it so genuinely it reminded me of my son. He wants to make me proud so much, but without meaning to, I was expecting near perfection. And I also relate to what the mom sees in her job. I did absolutely incredible, compassionate, life-changing things when I was a kid and a teen. But I understand now that it was because my childhood was very traumatic. My children have safe, supportive lives. So instead of focusing on how to save people and save themselves, they get to focus on exploring themselves and the world and being creative. Its amazing when some people rise to the occasion in a horrible situation and become incredible human beings that change the world. But I wouldn't wish those horrible situations on to anyone even if great things come from it. I'm glad that my children get to feel safe enough in their lives that they spend their weekends playing instead of starting groups to rescue the down-trodden like I did. I did that because I wanted to be saved and I didn't know how to do that. I want my kids to also be compassionate, so we volunteer together and have discussions about psychology and sociology.

I love seeing Alisha Boe getting high level work since 13 Reasons Why, she was honestly one of the most talented actors who worked in that show and it’s good to see her getting more roles

Jesse Eisenberg seriously doesn't get enough credit as a storyteller. He's incredibly talented. With him collaborating with A24, I'm definitely thrilled to see this.

I love the subtlety of her replying "No, no, I didn't say that" instead of "No, no, I don't think that," when he asks if she thinks he's stupid. Jesse Eisenberg never misses.

As a mom of a teenaged son this brought me to tears aged she says “ You used to be my little ally”…God, these years are hard but we’ll get through them 🤍🤍🤍. I can’t wait to see this with my son.

A24 saving the movie industry .

You know a film will be good when just the trailer moves me to tears… props to Eisenberg, Finn, Julianne Moore and the rest of the team!

i know it’s not subtle or anything but the irony of him opening the door when she’s in the shower right after she opened his door and he got pissed was so funny

Thank you A24 for being such a reliable and consistent group of storytellers. Anytime I see that logo I know I’m in for a movie that does more than speak words and flash images. I’ve always respected Jesse Eisenberg as an actor but this looks to be where his true talent lies. This is the type of role I want to see Finn Wolfhard in, he’s a talented musician and a decent actor when he has good material and this looks like the perfect role to show the world that he’s more than Mike from Stranger Things. This trailer gave me chills and is totally relatable as I had a similar relationship with my father. Can’t wait to see this and more from A24

I keep on returning to this trailer. Something about it is so deeply comforting to me and feels so nostalgic, I’m very excited to see this in its entirety

They literally dont stop, hit me in the feels growing up with a single mother and being distant at times. In A24 we TRUST!

Seems like a pretty universal story, the generational divide between parents and their teen children who have a drastically different world view as well as all the awful emotions that come with being a teen.

"You stopped being interested in anything besides your own little world." "Sorry about that" Damn that hit

It's just a trailer and I already got tears in my eyes.

I think Finn has been wanting to be in an A24 film. Good for him this looks great

I don't know why but this trailer made feel a tons of different emotions. The cast will surely give a dazzling performance and the story might bring tears to our eyes

I love seeing so many actors from shows I used to watch. I know some of these actors are almost 30 and they're still playing at high school role, but it looks pretty good.

I'm just surprised it took Jesse Eisenberg this long to direct a film! Loving how much A24 supports projects that shoot on film.
