you're a wallflower, Charlie.

this.

this book. this story. this author. this movie. these people. these stories they each have. The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is amazing. definitely one of my favorite books, and now, one of my favorite movies as well. it was captured so beautifully. no HD, no graphic effects--everything was filmed in a 90s, grainy sort of effect. it was so broken, so choked up, so much of everything all at once. it was infinite. 

perhaps one of the first book-to-movie movies that did not disappoint me entirely. after all, Stephen Chbosky was both the author, the screenplay writer and the director. lovely. there's nothing much i can say about this movie except it being the most bittersweet thing in the world. read the book. watch the movie. feel the story in your veins.

"it being the most bittersweet thing in the world".
oh my gosh. it so totally is. it really really hurt, but in such a beautiful way, and when i walked out of the cinema there was just all this glowy fuzzy warmness all over my insides. SUCH a good adaptation.
