Favorite New Films: Youth in Revolt
posted by The Joe
DISCLAIMER: This doesn’t really deserve the ‘Favorite New Films’ title. I’m probably being a bit too kind. But everyone else kind of trashed the film and someone needed to stick up for it. Anyway, it’s fun.
I’ve never read the Youth in Revolt book, and I don’t usually like ‘teen’ films. However, I do occasionally enjoy somewhat subversive ‘teen’ films. I also enjoy Michael Cera. I enjoy Michael Cera playing around with his persona even more. And I enjoy Fred Willard. No, scratch that – I adore Fred Willard.
Youth in Revolt is a somewhat subversive ‘teen’ film with Michael Cera playing around with his persona and Fred Willard being Fred Willard. So there you go.
