The Novice (2021)

The Novice (2021) is a drama by writer and director Lauren Hadaway in which a college freshman joins her college's rowing team. It's there that she is put through the wringer in order to get to the top. Her goal is to make it to the top-rated varsity boat at her school, so she is willing to do whatever it takes to get there. Unfortunately, she learns that it truly is whatever it takes. She gets put through physical and psychological hardships and obsessive goal-making in order to get her goal met no matter what it costs her to get there. This is a dark and electrifying sports drama about the nature of success and the blinders that people put on to get to where they want to go. Isabelle Fuhrman plays Alex Dall, our leading lady. She shows a lot of skin without ever actually going nude. We do see her sidebuns and her legs when she sits nude on a toilet. Other than that, we get to watch her in her bra and undies (or in a tight tank top with no bra) as she hangs out in her bedroom and in bed with a man...and a woman. She makes out with Dilone who plays Dani. Amy Forsyth plays Jamie Brill who sits down at a lunch table in the cafeteria while just wearing a white T-shirt without a bra. Watch her hard pokies jiggle as she walks through the lunchroom. The Novice may not go nude, but she looks like she knows what she is doing.
