Free tickets to see American Teen!
November 20th 2008 00:12
I've ranted and raved about "American Teen" for months now; my voice is hoarse, and my chin is flecked with spittle and foam. Other reviewers shy away from me, wild-eyed and ferocious, insisting that people abandon their tickets to "Quantum of Solace" and go see "American Teen" instead.
Read my review of the film!
It's a documentary about the social cliques of American high schools, but, despite the focus on small-town America, I think we can all relate to the idea of the hierarchy in high school. The movie brings back angry, desperate memories of rejection and peer pressure.
The movie is astonishing, mostly because it feels scripted... director Nanette Burstein maintains the authenticity of the film, insisting that it's all real footage, that she filmed over 1 000 hours, which had the net effect of the lead actors becoming very comfortable around her and her whirring camera.
Well, Paramount and 20/20 Filmsight have 5 double passes to give away to readers - all you have to do is answer one question:
What does Hannah Bailey want to study at college?
