That's the world of "The Florida Project," a movie that'll make you laugh, cry, and question your next vacation destination (all in the best way possible, of course). But hey, before you pack your flip-flops and head to Orlando on a quest for budget motels and Mickey Mouse shenanigans, you might be wondering: what year does this flick take place in?
Fear not, intrepid film fanatic! We've got the answer, along with a few fun facts to spice things up. Here's the lowdown:
The Not-So-Enchanted Year of...
drumroll please
2017!
Tip: Check back if you skimmed too fast.
Yep, that's right. "The Florida Project" isn't some period piece – it's a very recent look at the struggles some families face living near the happiest place on earth. Maybe not happiest for everyone, but definitely an interesting place to set a story.
Wait, But Why Does the Year Matter?
Ah, that's the beauty of film, my friend! Knowing the year can add a whole new layer of appreciation. Here's why:
A Glimpse into the Modern Struggle: This movie isn't some fairytale from a bygone era. It shows the challenges of poverty and homelessness in the present day, right next door to a symbol of luxury and fun. A bit of a social commentary, you see?
Catching the Trends: Fashion sense, technology use (or lack thereof for some of these characters!), and even pop culture references can all be subtly influenced by the year. Spotting these details can be a fun treasure hunt for eagle-eyed viewers.
**So yeah, knowing it's 2017 adds a bit of depth, doesn't it? **
