VERY predictable (3 more)
Cliche after cliche
Aimed at a young audience, which I realised a bit too late into it!
IMO it glorifies teenage suicide
Predictable cliches and borders on offensive

Dangerously glorifies teenage suicide and that for me is too much. (1 more)
Cliched.
This is a movie, currently being 'cult' followed by many younger people - not healthy.

Alison Bechdel gives us a brutally honest look into her family's life after her father's death, which may have been suicide. It's painful, real, and beautifully drawn. I highly recommend this novel.
