random unpopular opinion???
So i watched Chemical Hearts and I don’t wanna diminish it for anyone who got something how of it and I think it had some sweet scenes but I just can’t get over that 35 year old writer-director (who hasn’t been to high school since like the turn of the century) going on and on about teenage pain through the characters. You could HEAR some Howdy-Do-Fellow-Kids school counselor in the dialogue
also can we agree that subplots about angsty teen poetry reading are kinda played out and cringy? I would have forgiven a lot of the movie’s weird stuff if the guy had thrown the Pablo Neruda off the bed and started watching the “Vines that cared for me when no one else did” comp lol
