You go to the movies to have a little bit of a break from the real world. But in this endlessly depressing piece, I felt if I had actually hung out with these people. And, this is not a good thing.
Sam is the main character. When we meet him he is a few years out from the suicide of his father. It is his final days of high school leading into the summer before college. Due to a car accident he has no license and must get a job for the summer. It is through that he gets more friendly with his high school crush, Ellie. Ellie comes on super strong as soon as he starts working with her but unfortunately she is another one of those modern women stereotypes. She is hanging out with a bad bf that treats her bad and is pregnant and having an abortion. She could have been presented as someone to care about, but as usual for this kind character, when presented with a good guy (Sam) she starts treating him bad for no apparent reason.
As another side plot Sam finds some old photos of an old boyfriend of his mom and tries to set them up together. This does end horribly as mom is upset at the interference.
Everyone does a fine job and the script isn't bad it just isn't something other than a faithful telling of real life, endlessly depressing real life.

Too real
Life Is Full Of Questions
Life is full of deep questions. This movie asks the deepest to these young-adults who are barely equipped to answer any of them, and a few adults who want to know the answers just as badly. This movie askes, What if we can't find an answer? And answers it with a beautiful song. I hope it's good enough!
sincere and authentic
This movie felt me like it's real in every way. Story is fairly realistic. I was sick of youth movies that everyone in it is throwing parties and they are sure about the life and seem they know everything what's coming. The girl character made me feel so sad. I just wanted to hug her and he hugged her as well in the end. It's a tv movie but it has more in it than a regular tv stuff should have.
