Thank you so so much everyone for putting this list into your favorites.I hope that it has introduced you to meaningful movies about young people's characters and personalities,how they react into dysfunctional families,their passions and secrets,their dreams and fears,obsessions and weaknesses and everything they need or do.
I'm a total sucker for these kind of films.Maybe,because I had to face a difficult childhood and adolescence myself and I can somewhat sympathize with what few of the young people in this list are going through.
Rules changed.I will also add films I haven't seen since there are few films here.Suggestions are welcomed for me to add.
AMAZING list!! Really awesome choices, a lot i havent watched yet but will do if i have the motivation to.
Here some suggestions you might also find "enjoyable":
Well Christian F is aleready added on the right, but id highly suggest to first read the book its much much more detailed.
- Mysterious Skin
- Enter the Void
- Birdwatchers
- The Virgin Sucicides
- City of God (a classic)
....
I could suggest a lot lot more but i dont wanna spam your list nor do i want to take away the feeling of finding those movies yourself, but in case you want, i would of course gladly suggest some more
