Charlie was a bit annoying in the book, so glad the movie Charlie did away with all that.<br /><br />Oh god, if only this could get the awards attention. Award voters have such a small view of "youth" movies.<br /><br />I am glad too.Nikhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10379713171889712078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148220042850402796.post-45263061497040425592012-12-15T22:57:50.611+05:302012-12-15T22:57:50.611+05:30Thanks.

I agree with everything. Having...Yay for this post! I agree with everything. Having read the book many times when I was younger, I have to agree that the film adaptation is better. It's success seems completely hinged on Stephen Chbosky's screenplay and direction. He really told the story the way he wanted and we get the rewards of it. I had my doubts about Lerman going in, but he really blew me away and captured the essence of the character Charlie without being quite the snively weirdo of the book (still weird, but not bizarrely so). Miller is what the most memorable aspect of the film though, and I look forward to all the great things he'll do. <br /><br />Honestly, this film reminds me of the Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close of last year - novel adaptation on a personal, sentimental subject - except that this one is fantastic, and that one not so much. How does that get a Best Picture nom when this probably won't see any of the more esteemed awards?<br /><br />I'm happy to see plenty of people who agree with our view though... just not Academy voters.Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03015323238572496175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148220042850402796.post-23455339371219391272012-12-14T09:58:51.349+05:302012-12-14T09:58:51.349+05:30Such an incredible ensemble cast.

In my review, I highlighted that as one of the genius things about the casting. The 3 of them (Miller, Lerman, Watson) are all attractive, stylish and popular....but they are still damaged on the inside. They could have easily gone with more average looking people, but I like that they didn't cop out like that.Shane Slaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04527212913193906828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148220042850402796.post-35172046081868039722012-12-13T13:51:05.247+05:302012-12-13T13:51:05.247+05:30I wanna be best friends with Patrick.
