The Perks of Being a Wallflower

2012

My Take

Teen movie that looks soft, then punches you in the childhood, guts your trust in people and makes you realise one or two individuals might still be worth living. Friendship, trauma, healing, and a soundtrack that hurts in the best way.

▶Official Synopsis

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 1991. High school freshman Charlie is a wallflower, always watching life from the sidelines, until two senior students, Sam and her stepbrother Patrick, become his mentors, helping him discover the joys of friendship, music and love.
