Man, this movie really hits all the feels for me. I was in High School when this one came out. I was a meek, lost teen who just did everything to try and make friends and failed at every turn. This movie taught me "Screw em! Who cares what they think?" and I've lived by that mantra ever since. Suddenly I stopped worrying about how others would react and just did what I wanted to do. It really yanked me out of my shell. Later in life I actually got to meet Chris Crutcher and was able to tell him my story. He lit up and had a the biggest grin on his face when I told him the impact his story had on me. The autographed copy of his book is one of my greatest possessions.

This movie is criminally underrated. The 90s, much like the 80s, had TONS of teen movies and many of them are classics: 10 Things I Hate About You, Empire Records, American Pie, Dazed and Confused, Clueless, But I'm A Cheerleader, Can't Hardly Wait, Now and Then, etc. Angus gets drowned out among them which is a shame because this movie has so many incredible scenes. From his grandpa's monologue about Superman, the "screw em" advice (which is so simple yet so important), coping with loss, coping with bullying, social isolation that comes from being fat, and instead of just the stereotypical troupe of pimple-faced nerds you have a smart fat kid and a skinny dweeb that possess the most genuine friendship you will ever see in a teen movie.

I had a thing for chubby guys after that and I totally blame Angus for that. But then I was 16 when Scream came out and fell for Matthew Lillard and was all about tall gangly guys after that. I ended up marrying a man who’s a perfect mix of both types. We’ve been together 8 years and I still adore him! ❤
