Youth in Revolt coverAre you ready for a movie that is so ridiculous it will make you laugh until you cry? Youth in Revolt, an adaptation of the novel by C.D. Payne, is a film following a smart yet impulsive 14 year-old boy as he tries to win the heart of Sheeni, an eccentric girl he meets on a family vacation.  The movie unfolds into a series of unfortunate events as Nick (played by Michael Cera) goes to outrageous lengths to get the attention of this seemingly unattainable love interest, played by Portia Doubleday.  As Nick finds trouble with every turn, we are introduced to his quirky best friend Lefty and his dysfunctional divorced parents.  The colorful characters and gut-busting story make this a great movie to help you relive your past!

 

And if you loved the movie, you can read the novel it is based on -- Youth In Revolt: the Journals of Nick Twisp by C.D. Payne.  Find it at one of our branch libraries!
