10TH PLACE:
I was surprised to not have seen “The Perks of Being a Wallflower” until now. It’s a movie that I could have seen myself watching in high school, as it has all the makings of a young adult classic. Sure, it has the usual coming-of-age formula, but it showcases top-tier talent with a few interesting story developments to keep you invested. It places ten in this roster.
Marching on, we have nine more nominees…
