If you are thinking about watching this movie in 2020 or later, I assume it is because you discovered the amazing Timotheé Chalamet and are working your way through his films. I would say it is kind of worth the watch. It is not much of a commitment, the film is only an hour and a half.
Chalamet has only one or two lines but is on screen every now and then for flashbacks for few seconds at a time and shines in his brief appearances. (What a great casting choice for his talent of course but also because it is fully believable that he is a young James Franco).
The story is kind of interesting, it has some insights into unreliable narrative, trauma and drug use, playing the victim and not taking responsibility. I did feel however that the movie could have been better. The story line of the murder trial wasn't working for me. I liked Lena and Steven's relationship but she all of a sudden couldn't handle him anymore and was angry at him, which was too abrupt.
All in all, flawed but still a good movie.
