Overview

The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up. Now a major motion picture starring Emma Watson and Logan Lerman. Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mix-tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor.

"Neden iyi insanlar ilişki için yanlış kişileri seçer?" "Neden ben ve sevdiğim herkes, bize hiçbir şeymişiz gibi davranan insanları seçiyoruz?" "Hak ettiğimizi düşündüğümüz aşka razı oluruz."

We accept the love we think we deserve. Hak ettiğimizi sandığımız aşkı kabulleniriz.
