We all possess feelings but we often ignore them but this movie is all about going all out to feel Love, Grief,Happiness and the least favourite but the most crucial feeling PAIN.
The Perks Of Being a Wallflower may seem like an unusual title but it’s a simple story but the storytelling is where the magic occurs. The themes dealt in this movies are strong and quite less talked about.
In a nutshell it is the journey of a Traumatised boy Charlie who is hiding a big secret inside him but dealing with it on daily basis. His struggles are however sad but interesting because you can relate to him on some level at many instants.
The characters are not primitive high school kids just dancing and singing aimlessly but dealing with real issues and with a pretty good mindset.
The movie talks about SATs, colleges,graduation,music,getting high which in short means the real world high school issues.
The use of music requires a special mention because at many instants the music and songs have been used cleverly to help get the feel of the situation.
All in all it’s a must watch. It may not be your on the edge Movie but it’s a good and heartwarming film that simply soothes you into it.
