Publisher Description

There have been hundreds of movies about teenage misfits, and not just movies made in America. The lonely, confused adolescent is also a staple of films made overseas. It's important to always approach new works with an open mind. If you've sworn off movies with this subject matter because you are tired of teens searching for sex or the meaning of life, my advice is to give "Terri" a chance. "Terri" is one of the best movies I've seen so far this year, and yes, it's been a weak year, but still, here is a straight-forward comedy-drama that offers interesting characters and good writing. The film does not collapse under the weight of raunchy behavior and youthful stupidity, and it does not take the easy way out.
