I've been watching some swedish teen movies lately.
When i think about it i like watching teen movies now and then, and when i think about it and compare swedish ones to the american i can see that they are very different. Not just when it comes to language and scenery ofcourse, but also the point of the movie. In americans it's alot about being popular or becoming popular. In the swedish ones it's alot about the real struggle that especially girls have in their adolescence.
It's about real bullying and sexual harassment that girls goes through.
In american ones it feels very glittery and boys boys boys oriated, or as i said about becoming popular.
It just screams alot of hollywood.
Swedish teen movies feels real. I've seen things from sexual preferences like being a lesbian to wanting to commit suicide from bullying. This is what swedish teen movies are about. About being missunderstood and just looking for acceptance.
I think any girl would be able to relate to these movies when they think about how it was when they were 12-15.
I lost my train of thought here but basicly i like these movies and that the swedish ones are better.
A scene from Fucking Åmål.
Agnes is a lesbian that hasn't come out yet but people talk about it.
The girl in the wheelchair was her best friend. She just like alot of other people try to become more popular by putting down someone else.
