I would be interested to know what teen film people consider most representative of their experience. I love “Dazed and Confused” because it seems like the archetypical US high school experience. I was shocked that the director intended it to convey the boredom of that lifestyle because it seemed approx 1000 times more exciting that my teenager lifestyle in the 00s. American Pie was popular at that time but faaar from reality.
I wonder what films teenagers these days relate to.
- Memosyne 6y agoI would have to recommend watching Exam (2009)[1]. Being a teenager these days feels like taking an exam where the questions are invisible; everyone is suspicious of or hates you; the timer is ticking down in front of you; and you're constantly being monitored by the cameras whilst simultaneously having to find ways to game the system. 1- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exam_(2009_film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exam_(2009_film)
- thirdsun 6y agoGood question. I could imagine that "Eighth Grade" would come up a lot if kids at that age answered.
