[weaver_youtube hFo7eJR2cvc rel=0] I know how the title sounds but this movie is the third flavor in the Cornetto trilogy created by Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg.

By MELISSA KELLEY WCPL Cataloging Supervisor More times than not, movies about high school miss the mark. Whether it’s the actors, the stories, or just the overall feeling of inaccuracy, it just rarely feels authentic. When I think of “Perks of being a Wallflower” I think perfection!
