The Perks of Being a Wallflower

In fact, every child in the movie is a wallflower. In any form, they are isolated. Fortunately, they have each other, and with a sense of belonging, they can be the center of the world.
Charlie said that the first time he felt a sense of belonging when he saw Sam open his arms in the tunnel, let the wind blow, and smile. It was not until the end that the audience knew why charlie felt so distressed for sam from beginning to end, and said that she was the same person as her: they had similar pains and couldn't say it so easily. It seems that after speaking, everything has lost its original weight.
Belonging is something you only get when you're with someone like you, and even a lover usually only creates frustration. It's like sam always feels small because of his boyfriends because they don't care where sam is in the end. Often even if they knew it, they couldn't afford the negative energy that pushed her to grow up.

Perhaps many people have come out of adolescence, and they either get it or don't care about the sense of belonging. Or, a lot of people never thought that would be a problem at all.

It is said in the movie that many people have forgotten what they looked like when they were 15 even when they were only 16 years old. I also seem to have forgotten that not only did I not know myself now, but I also didn’t know myself at all back then. Because I never had a stable position in my heart. Seems to have wobbled more over the years. I don't know if it's right to divide the ranks and choose sides, but I do know that if there is no vague certainty about the category, no matter how high or low you choose, you will blame yourself.
Last night, I read in a book that people become themselves when they choose, not when they are chosen. The wallflower teenagers made their own choices unconsciously, they stood together, and they continued to walk down. Not knowing that you exist may be because you can't find the power that choice brings.

Avril was familiar with replicated in the earliest album. When I listened to her, I rode a bicycle to the Impression Store when I was in junior high school. I bought tapes when I had a lot of pocket money. Believe it or not, nearly ten years have passed without even creating any meaning. I think my courage for uncertainty is getting less and less, and I can't believe anything "if you could only let it be, you will see."

    Except for the illusion of watching "Velvet Gold Mine" in the song selection, the plot is probably the most dull youth theme.

    Homosexuality + bus + childhood sexual assault victims + punk Buddhists, it is a collection of teenagers Weirdo, but it is neither pretentious nor self-pity, coupled with the imitation of the Rocky horror show and those old-school rock, it looks really comfortable; This film has a great achievement in photography: a large aperture under the dark background, so psychedelic that it kills me directly.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower quotes

  • Charlie: I know who you are, Sam. I know I'm quiet... and, and I know I should speak more. But if you knew the things that were in my head most of the time, you'd know what it really meant. How, how much we're alike, and how we've been through the same things... and you're not small. You're beautiful.

  • Charlie: You got me a present?

    Sam: After all your help on my Penn State application? Of course I did. Open it!

    [Charlie opens it to see a typewriter]

    Charlie: I don't know what to say.

    Sam: You don't have to say anything.
