After premiering this year at the Sundance Film Festival, Laggies is getting ready to make its debut nationwide. A classic coming of age tale, it stars Keira Knightley using an American accent, which is profoundly distracting for at least the first 30 seconds of this trailer.

Knightley’s character has a bit of a meltdown when her boyfriend proposes, so instead of facing reality she starts hanging out with a 16-year-old played by Chloe Grace Moretz. Moretz happens to have a wise, attractive, single father played by Sam Rockwell, and naturally the chemistry between him and Knightley leads to at least one passionate makeout.

The movie opens October 24, and you can check out the trailer above.
