A summary of The perks of being a wallflower

The perks of being a wallflower is a movie that was released in 2012. The main characters are Charlie (Logan Lerman), Sam (Emma Watson) and Patrick (Ezra Miller). It was directed by Stephen Chbosky.

The movie is about a boy named Charlie, who starts high school. His best and only friend has recently passed away. He is bullied in his new school -like all the other freshmen. He also has a lot of personal problems, for example, he suffers from anxiety. Later he discovers the real reason for his problems, that is his aunt sexually assaulting him when he was little.

First, he is very lonely in school and works very hard. Then, in one of his classes, a boy named Patrick draws his attention. He is older than Charlie and he always makes jokes in class.
One day Charlie goes to watch a football game and he sees Patrick in the crowd. He sits next to him, talking to him for the first time. A while later a girl sits next to Charlie and is introduced as Sam.

For awhile Charlie is happy. He starts dating one girl from their group of friends, but he is actually in love with Sam. That leads into a difficult situation which results of Charlie breaking up with his girlfriend, making almost everyone in the group angry at him and leaving Charlie alone again.
Charlie manages to gain the groups trust, after he stands up for them in a fight.
After getting his friends back, it's not long until they graduate and leave to go to college. But still they all keep in touch with each other.

I highly recommend this movie to everyone. It has drama and romance and it's funny, but at the same time it's sad, deep and realistic. The great actors make it even more fantastic. It has some beautiful scenes and lines. It also gives a look in some highschoolers life.
