Teenage

Deb 10     Me 10

We really loved this documentary BUT... The subtitle is "Revolution Never Gets Old". Loved that too. A great look at the development of the teenager from somewhere in the late 1800s - early 1900s through the 1950s or so. I never really thought about about, figured teenagers had always existed, but as a cultural phenomenon it is relatively new. The big BUT about the movie is the growing trend toward un-labeled but accurate re-enactments in documentaries. This is dangerous territory and I hope it doesn't last. Re-enactments are nice, but they need to be clearly identified as such for they are clearly interpretations at best and only document what the film maker understands as real and has limited validity. But its a terrific movie.
