Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Freaktana A Major Disappointment

filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Mozjoukine Boucher, as director Trogi at 17, narrates this autobiographical account of leaving high school, losing it and trying to avoid awful career choices like those his dad made.Opens with him berating the suits on the human resources committee, where he is the voice of youth, about their strategy but we lose track of that.His family (Italian immigrant, garage booze making, accordion player dad, weight loss freak mum and reclusive sister) are more stressful than the friends he starts a petty crime wave with. Events conspire to break up his relationship with his prom date, who is about to put out and get him thrown in the slammer but things end appealingly.We've seen most of this before (American Pie, American Graffiti etc.) but this occasionally has a harder edge (Boucher expressing his contempt for his dad's life) and it's delivered with some charm and conviction. Professional finished.
