AMERICAN TEEN

This week I went and checked out the documentary American Teen. The film focuses on the mess that is being a high school student in small town Warsaw, Indiana. Hannah Bailey, Megan Krizmanich, Jake Tusing, Colin Clemens, and Mitch Reinholt really have nothing in common but the dream to make something of themselves after high school...or not. The driving force of the story line is Hannah Bailey, a quirky, heartbroken teen, who wishes for nothing but a one way ticket to California. She is the quintessential odd ball who manages to catch the eye of the high school "hottie" Mitch Reinholt. Needless to say, high school relationships come with their fair share of drama. American Teen is true to its title. A story that any teen, or former teen for that matter, can relate too. Whether you were the jock, geek, princess, reject or whatever, you'll find yourself engaged by the stories of these young adults. Not to mention the film is grounded by a fresh soundtrack packed with the likes of The Ting Tings, MGMT, The Black Kids, ect. Don't miss this!
