modern day teen movies are so hard to watch, there's so much angst or schmaltz and they always have to have 25 year olds playing teens to give it some gravitas. This is down to earth and simple, anyone can identify with freddy highmore's character as the rebellious, non conformist youth who lusts after the always unavailable hottie. Its a great coming of age tale as in the end, george does step up to the plate and learns some great life lessons. A great cast of "character actors and actresses" are also assembled here and I have no doubt Highmore and Roberts will be headlining in the years to come. Its a shame there was such a limited release but I guess less is more
