Reveal the answer
Mid90s (2018)
Why this is the answer (spoilers)
Mid90s is a 2018 coming-of-age film written and directed by Jonah Hill, following thirteen-year-old Stevie as he falls in with an older skateboarding crew in Los Angeles. It was shot on 16mm in a boxy 4:3 ratio, which gives the clips an unmistakable texture.
That grainy, almost square image is the fastest route to the answer; very few mainstream releases look like this. The skate-shop interiors and sun-bleached streets confirm it. If the footage feels like a home video of kids skating rather than a polished teen film, commit to this title.
