American Teen
My wife and I had a date the other day at one of the local theaters and while sitting through the previews, a movie came across that was a new one to me–American Teen.
I was immediately intrigued. Perhaps because it is about teenagers, or maybe because it takes place in my home state of Indiana or it could be reality of it all. I actually think my intrigue-ness is a result of all those things.
The movie is a look into the real life world of 5 Indiana teens. The five teens range in social status from the nerdy, awkward boy to the star jock. We see the snotty but pretty girl along with the girl who is all about discovering herself through the arts. Oh, and there is also that guy that we all wanted to punch because he seemed so perfect it made us all sick. As an adult you can probably relate to one of these teens and as a teen you were one of them.
Anna and I just sat there, mesmerized by this movie preview and have been anxiously awaiting its release July 25th.
If you work with teens or are a parent of a teen, mark your calendar for this movie!
