As someone who doesn't really like 'coming of age' movies, this is now one of my favourite films! The storyline was amazing and showed life as a teenager very well but also showed the struggle with grief and acceptance, it combined all these elements really well. Set in the 90s, the story follows Charlie (Logan Lerman) in his freshman year in high school as he struggles finding friends until he meets Patrick (Ezra Miller) and Sam(Emma Watson)...
The film had an incredible soundtrack featuring The Smiths and Dexys Midnight Runners. It has me laughing and crying through out. Would highly recommend.
