Internet culture moves at warp speed, with microscopic trend generations and a hyper-specific aesthetic timeline, but Mainstream is unmoored from any particular era besides loose late-2010s. It’s adrift in the uncanny valley of films about the internet, boiling down an entire world of experience – parasocial relationships with influencers, the relentless hustle of building a following, the corrosive surreality of living for faceless likes – into a simple, pedantic message of social media: vacuous, vapid, bad.

In her new film, Mainstream, out May 7 in theaters and on digital platforms, Coppola chronicles the rise and fall of Link, a social-media superstar (played by Andrew Garfield) whose collaboration with friends Frankie (Maya Hawke) and Jake (Nat Wolff) earns him an army of followers and unbelievable influence but doesn’t turn out to be everything he expected. ....
