Overview
As a fan of Albert Camus and Jean-Luc Godard, teenage Nick Twisp is definitely out of his element when his mother and her boyfriend move the family to a trailer park. When a pretty neighbor named Sheeni plays records by French crooners, it’s love at first sight for frustrated and inexperienced Nick. Learning that she is dating someone, Nick launches a hilarious quest to find his way into Sheeni’s heart—and bed.

Viewing Notes
Fuck the Michael Cera haters on this one. Youth In Revolt is a funny, irreverent and sweet movie. I loved it. Michael Cera’s “Francois Dillinger” is one of my favorite characters to come a long in quite a while. Sure, the story is simple and a bit goofy at times, but don’t we go to the movies to have a good time?
