The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1659337/

An American coming-of-age drama about a kid struggling to fit in = pretentious nonsense, right?  Not entirely.  Perks opens with some fantastically cringey scenes as our protagonist bumbles his way through his high school beginnings, then takes a turn for the highly pretentious, before stunning with a highly emotive end-piece.

Four stars
