when did h & m open in the us

The company was listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange in 1974.[7] Shortly after, in 1976, the first store outside Scandinavia opened in London.[7][9] H&M continued to expand in Europe, and began to retail online in 1998, when it was able to buy the domain hm.com from a company called A1 in a non-published domain transaction.[citation needed] The two-letter domain was registered in the early 1990s, but data on the first registration is lost.[citation needed] The opening of the first U.S. store on March 31, 2000, on Fifth Avenue in New York marked the start of the expansion outside of Europe.[7]

H&M

Hennes & Mauritz AB (Swedish pronunciation: [²hoː.ɛm; ²hɛnːɛs ɔ ˈma.ʊrɪts]; H&M) is a Swedish multinational clothing-retail company known for its fast-fashion clothing for men, women, teenagers and children. H&M and its associated companies operate in 62 countries with over 4,500 stores and as of 2015[update] employed around 132,000 people.[4] It is the second-largest global clothing retailer, just behind Spain-based Inditex (parent company of Zara). The company has a significant on-line presence, with on-line shopping available in 33 countries:[5][6]

The company was founded by Erling Persson in 1947, when he opened his first shop in V채ster책s, Sweden.[7] The shop, called Hennes (Swedish for "hers"), exclusively sold women's clothing. A store was opened in Norway in 1964.[8] In 1968, Persson acquired the hunting apparel retailer Mauritz Widforss, which led to the inclusion of a menswear collection in the product range and the name change to Hennes & Mauritz.[7]

In 2008, the company announced in a press release that it would begin selling home furnishings.[10] Initially distributed through the company's online catalogue, there are now H&M Home stores located internationally.

Following expansion in Asia and the Middle East and the launch of concept stores including COS, Weekday, Monki, and Cheap Monday, in 2009 and 2010, branding consultancy Interbrand ranked the company as the twenty-first most-valuable global brand,[11] making it the highest-ranked retailer in the survey. Its worth was estimated at $12–16 billion.[12][13]

H&M operated 2,325 stores at the end of 2011, and 2,629 stores at the end of August 2012.[14] Its 3,000th store opened in September 2013 in Chengdu, China.[15]

In November 2004, selected company stores offered an exclusive collection by fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld. The press reported large crowds and that the initial inventories in the larger cities were sold out within an hour,[16] although the clothes were still available in less fashion-sensitive areas until the company redistributed them to meet with demand.[17]

In November 2006, the company launched a collection by Stella McCartney and, in November 2006, by avant-garde Dutch designers Viktor & Rolf.

In March 2007, it launched another collaboration designed by the pop star Madonna.[18] In June 2007 the company worked with game developers Maxis to create a stuff pack for the latter's The Sims 2 computer game, H&M Fashion Stuff.[19]

In November 2007, the company launched a collection by Italian designer Roberto Cavalli. It was reported that the clothing sold out very quickly. Also in 2007, another design with Kylie Minogue was launched in Shanghai, China.[20] In the spring of 2008 the Finnish company Marimekko was selected as guest designer and was followed by Japanese Comme des Garçons in the fall.

In 2008, H&M used the song "Hang On" by British singer-songwriter Lettie as background music to its UK website.

For spring and summer 2009, the British designer Matthew Williamson created two exclusive ranges for the company – the first being a collection of women's clothes released in selected stores. The second collection saw Williamson branch into menswear for the first time, only in selected stores. The second collection also featured swimwear for men and women and was available in every company store worldwide.[21] On 14 November 2009, the company released a limited-edition diffusion collection by Jimmy Choo featuring shoes and handbags, ranging from £30 to £170 including a range of men's shoes. The collection also included clothing designed by Choo for the first time, many garments made from suede and leather, and was available in 200 stores worldwide, including London's Oxford Circus store.[22] Sonia Rykiel also collaborated with the company, by designing a ladies knitwear and lingerie range that was released in selected company stores on 5 December 2009.

For Fall 2010, the company collaborated with French fashion house Lanvin[23] as its 2010 guest designer.

In March 2011, the brand's clothing was featured in an interactive fashion art film by Imagine Fashion called "Decadent Control", starring Roberto Cavalli, Kirsty Hume, Eva Herzigová and Brad Kroenig. For Spring/Summer 2011, the company collaborated with fashion blogger Elin Kling, which was available at selected stores only. In June 2011, H&M announced a collaboration with Versace that was released on 19 November. Versace also planned a Spring collaboration with H&M that was only be available in countries with online sales. Similar to previous collaborations, Versace agreed to let H&M use the renowned name of the company for a previously agreed upon sum, without actually having a role in the design process.[24] In November 2011, H&M announced a collaboration plan with Marni, that launched in March 2012. The campaign was directed by award-winning director Sofia Coppola.[25]

On 4 October 2012, Japanese Vogue editor Anna Dello Russo launched an accessories collection at H&M as Paris Fashion Week drew to an end. The collection was stocked in 140 H&M stores worldwide and also sold through the H&M website[26] On 12 June 2012, H&M confirmed that it would launch a collaboration with avant-garde label Maison Martin Margiela for a fall rollout. The Maison Martin Margiela collection for H&M hit stores on 15 November 2012.

Beyoncé was the face of H&M in summer 2013. Her campaign, which began in May 2013 was entitled "Mrs. Carter in H&M", and drew heavily on Knowles' personal style. Isabel Marant was a collaboration designer for Fall 2013 and for the first time made a men's collection to accompany the women's collection. The collaboration was sold out very quickly in cities across the globe and was heavily anchored in sales online as well.

Alexander Wang was announced as a collaboration to be released 6 November 2014 across the world to a select 250 stores. The announcement came during the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in California and will be the first collaboration with an American designer.

Balmain was announced as the next collaboration with H&M. The collection was released on November 5, 2015.[27] The announcement came from Balmain designer Olivier Rousteing's Instagram page.

In November 2016, H&M released a designer line in collaboration with Kenzo.[28] That year H&M released an annual holiday movie directed by Wes Anderson. Titled “Come Together”, the short film stars Adrien Brody as a train conductor who saves Christmas after a blizzard delays the train’s arrival, making the few passengers on board miss part of the holiday.[29][30][31][32]

In addition to the H&M brand, the company consists of five individual brands with separate concepts.[33] Q4 2016 saw the hoarding of a new H&M concept in The Dubai Mall come up, labelled 'H&M Details'.

COS launched its flagship store on Londonâ€™s Regent Street in March 2007 with a catwalk show at the Royal Academy.[34] Its concept is encompassed by minimalist style inspired by architecture, graphics, and design.[35][34] It specialises in modern clothing pieces for men and women that are less trend-oriented than other similarly priced labels.[36] COS makes clothing that can be worn beyond the season.[37] COS has 197 stores in 34 countries[38] in Europe, Asia, North America, Australia and the Middle East and currently retails online to 19 markets via cosstores.com.

& Other Stories launched in Spring 2013, with seven stores opening throughout Europe.[39] Its Regent Street store opened on 8 March 2013,[40] with other locations in Barcelona, Berlin, Copenhagen, Dublin, Milan, Paris and Stockholm.[41] & Other Stories offers women's clothing, shoes, bags, accessories, and beauty products, with a focus on high quality throughout a wide price range.[41] In March 2016, it collaborated with the designer label Rodarte.[42] & Other Stories has 46 stores in 12 countries,[43] as well as e-commerce in 14 at stories.com (formerly at otherstories.com).[44]

The first ARKET store was opened in Regent Street in August 2017, having been in preparations since June 2015.[45][46] The brand is labeled "a modern-day market"[47] and houses a line known as the "archive", in which each item is known by a nine-digit code organised into department, category, product, and material.[48] ARKET also sells children's clothing and homewares, and has an in-store cafÃ©.[48]

In 2008, H&M purchased 60 percent of shares in the Swedish fashion company FaBric Scandinavien AB, and bought the remaining shares in 2010 with a price totalling SEK552 million. The company's three brands- Cheap Monday, Monki, and Weekday- continue to be run as separate concepts.[49]

Cheap Monday, known for its distinctive skull logo, is a full fashion brand launched in 2004.[50] The brand is available from many retailers worldwide as well as its own stores and e-commerce site cheapmonday.com.[33]

Monki is "a wild and crazy international retail concept that believes that, it needs to fight ordinary and boost imagination with an experience out of the ordinary".[51] The brand sells fashion for young women in stores in 13 markets, and is available online in 18 markets at monki.com.

Weekday, styled as WEEKDAY, 'carries in-house brands such as MTWTFSS WEEKDAY and Weekday Collection as well as external brands.[33] The brand has stores in 9 markets and is available online in 18 markets at weekday.com and in 140 markets at asos.com.

In August 2011, nearly 200 workers passed out in one week at a Cambodian factory supplying H&M. Fumes from chemicals, poor ventilation, malnutrition and even "mass hysteria" have all been blamed for making workers ill. The minimum wage in Cambodia is the equivalent of just $66 (Â£42) a month, a level that human rights groups say is not even half that required to meet basic needs.[52]

Bangladeshi and international labour groups in 2011 put forth a detailed safety proposal which entailed the establishment of independent inspections of garment factories. The plan called for inspectors to have the power to close unsafe factories. The proposal entailed a legally binding contract between suppliers, customers and unions. At a meeting in 2011 in Dhaka, major European and North American retailers, including H&M, rejected the proposal. Further efforts by unions to advance the proposal after numerous and deadly factory fires have been rejected.[53]

The Guardian wrote that in a conscious actions sustainability report for 2012, H&M published a list of factories supplying 95% of its garments. Most retailers and brands do not share this information, citing commercial confidentiality as a reason.[54]

On 2 January 2013, The Ecologist reported[55] allegations by Anti-Slavery International that H&M is continuing its association with the Uzbek government in exploiting child and adult forced labour as cotton harvesters in Uzbekistan.[56]

After the April 2013 Savar building collapse H&M and other retailers signed on to the Accord on Factory and Building Safety in Bangladesh. On 19 May 2013, a textile factory that produced apparel for H&M in Phnom Penh, Cambodia collapsed injuring several people.[57] The incident has raised concerns regarding industrial safety regulations.

On 25 November 2013, H&M's global head of sustainability committed[58][59] that H&M, as the world's second-largest clothing retailer, will aim to pay all textile workers "living wage" by 2018, stating that governments are responding too slowly to poor working conditions in Bangladesh among other Asian countries where many clothing retailers source a majority if not all of their garments. Wages were increased in Bangladesh from 3,000 taka ($40) to 5,300 taka ($70) a month in late 2013.[60]

In September 2015, CleanClothes.org, an NGO involved in garment labour working conditions, reported on a lack of specific fire safety renovations in H&M suppliers' factories.[61]

In June 2016, SumOfUs launched a campaign to pressure H&M to honour the commitment to protect Bangladesh's garment workers which it had signed onto following the Rana Plaza collapse in Bangladesh in 2013, which killed over 1100 people, mostly garment workers, in unsafe factories housed in an eight-storey building not designed for factories. SumOfUs alleged that "H&M is drastically behind schedule in fixing the safety hazards its workers have to face every day."[62]

In February 2017 the Guardian reported children were employed to make H&M products in Myanmar and were paid as little as 13p (about 15cents US) an hour â€“ half the full legal minimum wage.[63]

On January 6, 2010, it was reported that unsold or refunded clothing and other items in one New York City store were cut up before being discarded, presumably to prevent resale or use.[64]

On January 24, 2012, H&M was reported to have stolen an artist's work, using it on multiple items without compensating the artist.[65]

In August 2013, the Swedish fashion chain withdrew faux-leather headdresses from Canadian stores after consumers complained the items, part of the company's summer music festival collection, were insulting to Canada's Aboriginal peoples.[66]

On November 6, 2015, the H&M South Africa division had been accused with racism for lack of black models in their photoshots,[67] later claiming that White models convey a more "Positive Image" than that of black models.[68]

On January 8, 2018, H&M showcased on their official United Kingdom website[69] a picture of a young Black child wearing a green hoodie reading, "Coolest Monkey in the Jungle," which sparked a great deal of controversy,[70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77] notably in the United States due to the cognition of "monkey" being used to describe a Black person,[69] though the term "cheeky monkey" is used in the UK to refer to a little child regardless of race. In response, singers such as The Weeknd and G-Eazy boycotted the company by ending their partnerships with H&M over the racial controversy.[78][79][80] H&M later released an apology: “This image has now been removed from all H&M channels and we apologise to anyone this may have offended.”[81][82][83][84] The mother of the model urged people to "stop crying wolf," deeming it "an unnecessary issue."[85] After the allegation of racism, H&M stores were vandalized and looted in South Africa. In response, H&M temporarily closed stores in South Africa.[86][87]

Since January 2012 H&M introduced the H&M Design Award, an annual design prize for fashion graduates. The prize is established to support young designers with the beginning of their career.[88]

Starting in February 2013, H&M will offer patrons a voucher in exchange for used garments. Donated garments will be processed by I:CO, a retailer that repurposes and recycles used clothing with the goal of creating a zero-waste economy. The initiative is similar to a clothes-collection voucher program launched in April 2012 by Marks & Spencer in partnership with Oxfam.[89][90][91]

In April 2014, H&M joined Zara and other apparel companies in changing their supply chain to avoid endangered forests. H&M teamed with Canopy, a non-profit, to remove endangered and ancient forests from their dissolvable pulp supply chain for their viscose and rayon fabrics.[92]

In August 2015, H&M announced that it will award a million-euro annual prize to advance recycling technology and techniques.[93]

The H&M Foundation is a non-profit foundation which was established in order to implement positive change and improve living standards, such as education for children, worldwide access to clean water, strengthening women on a global scale, and being environmentally aware. It is privately funded by the Persson Family, founders and owners of H&M. Since 2013, the Persson Family has made huge contributions to the foundation, donating SEK1.1 billion (US$154 million) to the H&M Foundation.


where was the movie the miracle season filmed

The film was originally titled Live Like Line.[8] William Hurt and Helen Hunt joined the film in June 2016; Hunt and McNamara previously worked together on the similarly-themed film Soul Surfer. Filming took place in Vancouver, Canada.[7]

The Miracle Season

The Miracle Season is a 2018 American drama film directed by Sean McNamara[2] and starring Erin Moriarty, Helen Hunt, William Hurt, and Danika Yarosh.[3] The film is based on the true story of the Iowa City West High School volleyball team[4] after the sudden death of the team's heart and leader, Caroline Found in 2011.[5] It was released in the United States on April 6, 2018.[6] The film received mixed reviews from critics and has grossed $10 million worldwide.

Caroline "Line" Found is the star volleyball player on the Iowa City West High School Volleyball Team and well-loved by members of the community. With Line as the captain, the Trojans have been undefeated and everyone has high hopes for West to win the championship again after the previous year, especially against their long-time rival, City High. During a party at her house, Line decides to secretly sneak away to visit her mother Ellyn at the hospital, where she is being treated for cancer. That night, Line herself is killed in a moped accident, leaving the entire community in mourning.

Despite the school and community still in shock over Line's death, the Trojans' coach, Kathy Bresnahan continues to hold volleyball practice. She directly approaches Line's best friend, Kelley, encouraging her to return because Line would have wanted them to continue. Kelley refuses, but Bresnahan persists until Kelley agrees. After it is revealed that City West has lost their most recent match due to forfeit, Kelley encourages the entire school that they need to continue for Line's sake.

City West struggles in practice and loses their first game badly, still discouraged from Line's death. Bresnahan begins to run the team through grueling drills until a teammate can serve to spot one. When Kelley succeeds, Bresnahan names her the new captain of the team. As the weeks go by, the team becomes motivated to win the state championship for Line and begin to win their games. Bresnahan informs the team they need to win all of their remaining games to be eligible for the state championship. The Trojans win their next fourteen games, giving them a chance to win the championship.

Before the state tournament begins, Kelley finds a gift from Line's father, Ernie, that encourages her not to play like Line or be her, but to "Live Like Line." At the state tournament, the Trojans win the quarter-final game with ease, but struggle to win their semi-final game. They move on to the championship, and have to go up against City High, who are heavily favored to win. City takes the lead early the game, but West manages to tie the game until the fifth and final set. West capture the state championship again. As the crowd cheers, Sweet Caroline plays in honor of Line and Kelley holds Line's picture up high and proud.

The Miracle Season premiered at the Englert Theatre in Iowa City, where the film is set, on March 18, 2018.[9] It was released by LD Entertainment on April 6, 2018.[10]

In the United States and Canada, The Miracle Season was released alongside A Quiet Place, Chappaquiddick and Blockers, and as projected to gross around $3 million from 1,707 theaters in its opening weekend.[11] It ended up debuting to $4.1 million, finishing 11th; 74% of its audience was female.[12]

On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 47% based on 38 reviews, and an average rating of 5.4/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "The Miracle Season has a worthy real-life story to tell, but one-dimensional characters and aggressively maudlin storytelling undercut any emotional uplift."[13] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 44 out of 100, based on 13 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[14] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.[12]

Tom Joyce of LifeZette gave the film a positive review, says it was the inspirational volleyball story that Hollywood needed to produce.[15]


where is jt barrett playing in the nfl

Joe Thomas "J.T." Barrett IV (born January 23, 1995) is an American football quarterback for the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for Ohio State Buckeyes and holds the Big Ten Conference record for most passing touchdowns in a career.[1]

J. T. Barrett

Barrett attended S. H. Rider High School in Wichita Falls, Texas, where he was a three-sport athlete in football, basketball, and track. He played as a dual-threat quarterback for the Raiders football team. As a junior, he rushed for over 1,500 yards and passed for over 1,600 yards, totaling 23 touchdowns. In his senior season, he rushed for 569 yards with seven touchdowns and passed for 784 yards and five touchdowns before tearing his ACL in October, which ended his high school career prematurely.[2] In spring 2011, Barrett joined the school's track & field team, recording a personal-best time of 11.10 seconds in the 100-meter dash at the Iowa Park Relays, winning the event, while also running the second leg in the 4 x 400-meter relay, helping them earn a second-place finish with a time of 3:46.05 minutes.[3]

Barrett was ranked by the Rivals.com recruiting network as a four-star recruit and the seventh best dual-threat quarterback in his class.[4] He committed to Ohio State University in April 2012.[5][6]

Barrett redshirted as a freshman at Ohio State in 2013.[7] Barrett was expected to be the backup quarterback to senior Braxton Miller in 2014. However, he became the starter after Miller was forced to miss the season due to injury.[8][9]  On November 29, during the Ohio State-Michigan matchup, Barrett went down with what was later determined to be a broken ankle early in the fourth quarter. The injury happened on a run play, with Ohio State leading 28–21, after Barrett had thrown for 176 yards and a touchdown while also rushing for 89 yards and two touchdowns. Ohio State went on to win the game with Cardale Jones at quarterback.[10] Barrett was cited in the weeks before the injury as a potential Heisman Trophy contender but ended up finishing fifth in the voting. His injury prevented him from returning during the 2014 season,[11] but he had a successful surgery and was expected to be available in a limited capacity for spring practice.[12] Ohio State went on to win the their next game against Wisconsin, the 2015 Sugar Bowl against Alabama, and the 2015 CFP National Championship, behind the play of backup Cardale Jones.

As a redshirt sophomore in 2015, Barrett passed for 992 yards, 11 touchdowns, and four interceptions. As a redshirt junior in 2016, he passed for 2,555 yards, 24 touchdowns, and seven interceptions.[13] Barrett returned to Ohio State for his final season of eligibility in 2017.[14] As a redshirt senior in 2017, he passed for 3,053 yards, 35 touchdowns, and nine interceptions.

Barrett was named Conference Freshman of the Week seven times and received the Big Ten's Thompson–Randle El Freshman of the Year award. He received the Big Ten's Griese–Brees Quarterback of the Year award in 2014, 2016 and 2017. Barrett was named First Team All-Big Ten in 2014, 2016 and 2017 by both conference coaches and media.[15][16] Barrett earned Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week honors nine times.[17][18]

Barrett is the first quarterback in Buckeyes history to go 4â€“0 as a starter against their top rival, Michigan.[19]

Barrett is the only three-time captain in the history of the Buckeyes football team.[20][21]

Barrett accumulated more than 25 Ohio State records including most total yards in a season (3,851) and most touchdowns in a season (47) as well as most career passing yards (9,434) and completions (769). Additionally, he has several Big Ten Conference records including most career passing touchdowns (104) and total touchdowns (147). He also passed Drew Brees for most career offensive yards, with 12,697.

As of December  30, 2017, Barrett holds the following stats:[22]

Barrett went undrafted in the 2018 NFL Draft, and was offered to participate in the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints rookie minicamps.[24][25] Originally, Barrett planned on attending the Colts' camp but later decided he would attend the Saints' camp instead.[26] On May 3, 2018, Barrett signed a three-year deal with the Saints as an undrafted free agent.[27][28] He was waived by the Saints on September 1, 2018 and was signed to the practice squad the next day.[29][30] He spent time on and off the Saints practice squad before being released on October 24, 2018, but was re-signed three days later.[31][32]

On December 10, 2014, police were called to Barrett's apartment after he allegedly choked his pregnant girlfriend and threw her across the room. [33] According to reports, Barrett did so after she refused to leave following an argument. He also took her phone during the altercation. No charges were filed in the incident, and Barrett was not suspended for any length of time.[34]

On October 31, 2015, Barrett was arrested and charged with avoiding a DUI checkpoint and operating a vehicle under the influence.[35] He was fined $400 and had his license suspended. Ohio State suspended Barrett for one game.[36]


when does the movie november criminals come out

The film was released through video on demand on November 7, 2017, and opened in a limited release on December 8, 2017, by Stage 6 Films and Vertical Entertainment.

November Criminals (film)

November Criminals is an American crime drama film, directed by Sacha Gervasi and written by Gervasi and Steven Knight, and based on Sam Munson's 2010 novel The November Criminals. The film stars Ansel Elgort, Chloë Grace Moretz, Catherine Keener, and David Strathairn.

The film opens with old footage of a young Addison Schacht and his mother playing at the beach. A voice over reveals that Addison's mother died of an aneurysm six months prior to the events of the movie.

In the present, teen aged Addison Schacht is delivering his application to the University of Chicago, along with his friend Phoebe Zeleny. After dropping the envelope off, the pair go to a local bakery for some coffee. There, they meet Kevin Broadus, who is a mutual friend of both Addison and Phoebe and an employee at the bakery. Once Addison and Phoebe get into their car, Phoebe admits that she is still a virgin, and would like to lose it before leaving for college. Addison agrees and the two head to Phoebe's house. Shortly after they leave, an armed motorcyclist pulls up to the bakery and rushes inside with his gun drawn.

Addison and Phoebe are discussing their feelings about both losing their virginities when Phoebe's mother calls to inform her that there was a shooting at the bakery, and that Kevin was killed. Addison heads home, but stops at the bakery, which is now an active crime scene. Addison asks a news cameraman about the shooting, and the cameraman admits that it was most likely due to gang violence. Addison is confused because he believed Kevin was not the kind of person to be involved with a street gang.

Fed up with the authorities dismissive claims about the shooting and his school's eagerness to forget about the shooting, Addison starts his own investigation into Kevin's murder. He starts putting up posters around the school, asking anyone to call if they have more information about the shooting. Addison also steals Kevin's file from the school records, where he and Phoebe learn that Kevin was seeing the counselor because he seemed emotionally detached and distant. While at lunch one day, a student who was at the bakery the day Kevin was killed reveals that the shooter was white, and not black like the original police report said. The student also mentions that Kevin had been hanging out with a former student named Noel. Meanwhile, Addison is suspended for a week after administrators check his locker and find Kevin's stolen file.

Phoebe tells Addison about the information she received, and the two decide to visit Noel in his shady Washington D.C. neighborhood. The two meet Noel and his accomplice D Cash, in a standoffish and awkward initial meeting. D Cash tells Addison that they will be in touch. Addison decides to visit Kevin's parents to see if they have any information about why Kevin was murdered. An angered Mr. Broadus assaults Addison, and reveals that Kevin became much more secretive in the last year, as well as having a severe drug problem. Addison is later contacted by Noel and D Cash again, and he is told to meet them at a bar. Addison attempts to get Phoebe to leave her mother's house party, but she declines. Addison admits his feelings for her and leaves to meet Noel and D Cash.

Noel and D Cash reveal that Kevin disrespected a powerful drug dealer at a nightclub several days before he was killed, and they agree to give Addison the name of a guy who was at the nightclub that night, as long as he makes a drug delivery to Chevy Chase (an affluent neighborhood they cannot get into). Addison delivers the drugs to a large mansion that belongs to Phoebe's friend Alex. After delivering the drugs, Addison receives the name of the man who was present at the nightclub, Mike Lorinner.

Addison calls Phoebe and tells her about Mike, and she implores Addison to call the police and let them handle the situation. Addison ignores her and arrives at Mike's house. Addison sets up a video camera to record the confrontation. When Mike opens the door, Addison questions him about the night at the club. Mike tells Addison to leave, but further presses him about how he found him. At the same time that Mike notices the red "record" light coming from the camera, Addison notices the same motorcycle that the shooter was reportedly riding. Mike holds Addison at gunpoint, and reveals that the drug dealer that Kevin disrespected was in fact D Cash. As the police arrive (presumably called by Phoebe), Addison rushes a momentarily distracted Mike, but is shot in the shoulder as Mike runs off.

In the hospital, Addison recovers from his wound and reconciles with Phoebe, and Addison learns that Mike, D Cash, and Noel were all arrested by police. Later, Addison and Phoebe attend Kevin's funeral. Addison is accepted into the University of Chicago, but he will be away from Phoebe, who is attending Yale. In their final meeting before leaving for college, Phoebe hands Addison a letter, which is revealed to be a list of train times between Chicago and New Haven. Addison returns home, where he joins his dad in watching old videos of Mrs. Schacht.

In November 2014, it was reported Chloë Grace Moretz and Catherine Keener had been cast in the film.[1] In January 2015, Ansel Elgort was set to play the lead.[2] David Strathairn also joined on March 23, 2015.[3]

Filming began on March 23, 2015 in Rhode Island and Washington D.C.[3][4] and wrapped on April 28, 2015, after 32 days of filming.[citation needed]

In January 2015, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions acquired North American and international distribution rights to the film.[5] The film was released through video on demand on November 7, 2017, before opening in a limited release on December 8, 2017.[6]

On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 0%, based on 9 reviews, and an average rating of 3.8/10.[7] On Metacritic, the film has an average score of 31, based on 5 reviews, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews".[8]
