Perks

On Saturday I watch The Perks of Being a Wallflower. And I loved it. Some parts were weird and awkward but I didn't mind at all.

I love that Emma Watson was in it. And I would have watched it regardless. It's one of those stories that you just have to read and watch. It was very powerful in my opinion.

And can we just take a moment to give a standing ovation to Percy Jackson  Logan Lerman. I applaud him. He's now one of my favorite actors. He did such a good job. He was really committed and I appreciate it. It's an important story.

It deals with elements of depression and I love stories that deal with that, I know what it's like to be depressed. So I appreciate it.

The actor that plays Patrick (Ezra Miller) was also awesome. He was very powerful. I really felt for him and understood his pain concerning his lover.

I think the cast did a phenomenal job and I rate it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

I need to finish reading the book before I discuss book vs movie topics. So we'll leave that conversation for a later day.

I loved the quotes. They are so powerful and inspiring and heartbreaking.

"We accept the love we think we deserve."

"And in that moment, I swear we were infinite." There are no words to describe how much I love these quotes.

And to conclude there was one scene in particular that was my favorite. Simply because it was heartbreaking and I teared up.

Near the end Charlie(Logan Lerman's character), breaks down. And he's sobbing and crying. And he's begging himself to stop crying. That got to me. In so many ways. Mainly because I've been there.

I know what it's like to break down and trying to stop crying even though the tears just keep falling.

That is the image I will think of at least for a while whenever I think of Perks.

I loved this film.
