i am depressed. i am suicidal. i am abused and broken and trying my best to not break down in tears at any moment. i am trying to survive, so i can make the movies i want, the music i want, see the places i want to see, meet the people i'm so desperate to see, feel love in person again. i am trying to look forward to things but there is a tidal wave of emotional pain that hits me and that i can't control. i am haunted by the pain from my past and loneliness in my present, i am plagued by an illness i cannot control and i am struggling to fit into a world that doesn't…
maybe if i check myself in a psych ward and find a cute girl inside, we would fall in love then my depression will magically go away aha🤪
also can we address the blatant racism in this movie? all the poc here are just like icebreaker stories u tell everyone at a party
that performance of under pressure is peak cinema. also, zach galifianakis nailing drama is something I never knew I needed until now.
Well, at least they had good intentions. Probably.🤔
This kid stays five days on a psychiatric floor and suddenly doesn’t feel suicidal after Zach Galifianakis convinces him that loads of people have it worse.
If only he’d thought of that before?🙄
There’s also a half baked romcom in there were he falls in love with Emma Roberts, playing a character with seemingly no personality of her own. She should really be in better movies.
I was rooting for the main character but it all felt so rushed and cliche.🥱
Also, it’s kinda racist and blatantly transphobic.😒 So that’s a bummer.
The ‘Under pressure’ scene was pretty cool though.👩🎤👨🎤🧑🎤
hey, sometimes people have a mental illness that isn't caused by trauma or abuse!
thanks for writing a story about it
the fact that this movie ends with the two teens going to see vampire weekend is just the most 2010 thing ever
An unusual movie with some great transition effects of scenes added to the narration.
Nothing new, but still a good watch.
i don't know what's more shocking... the fact that zoe kravitz is in this or that emma roberts is nice
