The Perks of being a Wallflower (2012)




I watched this movie a month ago and I can't stop thinking about... The minute I entered the narration I was hooked.. The best thing about it- The oh so beautiful Characters!!.. The movie made me realize the extensive role of friendship in one's life. We're Infinite!!!  Like every other movie freak, I was a bit cynical about Wallflower being another one of those High School Cutesy Romance kinda movie, but (trust me) its not..
Its about Charlie, a regular shy, socially awkward high school junior, in desperate search of friends.. He meets Patrick ( aka Nothing), Sam and the whole group of Wallflowers who astonishingly are the psycho seniors and befriends them. We get to know more about Charlie- his disturbed mind, his closest relative, and of course, all the "Whys" along with it. Through Sam and Patrick, Charlie experiences the most  although complex but cherished period of his life. And its with them that he realizes the infinity of his existence and his potential to overcome.
I loved both Logan Lerman ( Charlie) and  Ezra Miller (Patrick) in the movie and the editing (my most loved part of filming) is just bravo. Good Music lovers ( Rock n Roll) should definitely be in favor of me as I madly googled the music and added them to my collection. The only disappointment would be Emma Watson, who couldn't be easily ignored for "accent". But she can be erased consciously. If you are one of those people who loved Juno (like me) , you shouldn't miss this one at any cost.

In the end, Charlie says " There are people who forget what its like to be sixteen when they turn seventeen"!!! Very deep indeed.... I am one of those people and I can't stop analyzing myself!!
