American Teen Movie

admin's picture

American Teen is a movie which was filmed in a small Indiana town, Warsaw. Although the movie was not filmed here in Jasonville, it was filmed in a town of 12000 people right here in Indiana, the plot does document the lives of teens in a small town. I'm looking forward to seeing this movie. The Plot: American Teen intimately captures the lives of four teenagers in one small town in central Indiana through their senior year of high school. Through cinema verite footage, interviews, and animation, American Teen presents a candid portrait of being seventeen--the insecurity, the cliques, the jealousies, the first loves and heartbreaks, the experimentation with sex and alcohol, the parental pressures, and the struggle to make profound decisions about the future. The Filming: Filming daily for ten months, filmmaker Nanette Burstein developed a remarkably close rapport with her subjects. The result is a film that goes beyond the enduring stereotypes of high school – the nerd and the jock, the homecoming queen and the arty misfit – to render complex young people trying to find their way into adulthood. The movie has won at the Sundance Film Festival and was picked up by Paramount Vantage, so hopefully the movie will be shown around here. Stay tuned for more information.
