Saoirse Ronan’s new film Lady Bird has landed a 100% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
As of this morning, Lady Bird has received 170 positive reviews, making it the most positively reviewed movie on Rotten Tomatoes since Toy Story 2 was released in 1999.
The movie was released in the US on November 3, and Saoirse has been widely tipped for an Oscar nomination for her role in the film.
The coming of age movie is directed and written by Greta Gerwig, and stars Saoirse as 17-year-old Christine ‘Lady Bird’ McPherson.
Speaking about the 100% fresh rating, Greta Gerwig said, “We put our heart and souls into this movie, and the last step of this deeply collaborative art form of filmmaking is giving the film to the audience and the film critics.”
“That there has been such a warm reception is a dream come true. Thank you to everyone who has seen the film and has written about it so thoughtfully. We are all on cloud nine and using our tomato emoji more than we ever thought possible.”
