An ‘outsider’ relates to a person who is ostracised, who does not belong to a particular group and is unaccepted. Director-writer Amy Heckerling portrayed several characters such as Tai and Cher as the outsider in her film in the same way S.E Hinton manifest Ponyboy Curtis and the gang, Greasers as the outcast of her novel ‘The Outsiders’. The Outsiders is a successful exploration and understanding of people who are unlike

As a young adult, it is difficult to grow up without parents and still be tough and brave. In addition, teens can be emotional and overreact at times. In the novel The Outsiders, by S.E Hinton, a fourteen-year-old kid named Ponyboy Curtis feels different emotions that make him stand out from other Greasers, or “hoodlums”. Ponyboy, the youngest of all the Greasers, is a great example of a teen who feels isolated, brave, and emotional throughout the novel.

The play, “Romeo and Juliet,” by William Shakespeare, and the article, “The Teenage Brain: Still under construction,” from the National Institute of Mental Health, prove that hormones affect teens in multiple ways. In the play, Romeo falls in love at first sight with Juliet, but their families hate each other. In the end the hate is relieved from the families due to the death of the two children. Also, in the article it explains what causes teenagers to act out, and why it happens. As soon as teenagers stop letting their hormones control them, they will be able to make better decisions and control how they feel.

At just fifteen years old author Susan Eloise Hinton began writing fiction genre book for young adults, three years later the book became published, Recently, the grade eight students of ICS Madrid have been studying reading, watching, and carefully paying close attention towards the film (directed by Francis Ford Coppola 1983), and book “The Outsiders (published on April 24, 1967). Ever since grade eight has begun to read the book, students seems to be questioning other people’s opinions and thoughts on whether or not The Outsiders film is an overall recommend “good film”. The Outsiders depicts and sets the story of the greasers and Socs, two present teen gangs also known as “Juvenille Delinquents in the mid-1960s Tulsa, Oklahoma. The greasers are "from the wrong side of the tracks," while the Socs are identified as the "rich kids” from privileged backround. The narrator and leading character, Ponyboy Curtis and friend/gang member Johnny Cade were unfortunately involved in a kill run with one of the members of the Socs Bob Sheldon, when the gang tried to “jump” them at dawn.

Pixar’s Inside Out is an interesting take on how our emotions work as well as how our brains operate. The story starts off with a narration by Joy, voiced by Amy Poehler, explaining how her job works, and how she and the other emotions came to be inside the mind of young Riley Anderson. The emotions watch and guide Riley by influencing how she reacts to different daily situations. The only thing the emotions are not prepared for however, is an unexpected move from Minnesota to San Francisco (Inside Out). This hilarious take at how our brains work allows Inside Out to create an entertaining and engaging movie using character interaction and its deeper emotional and psychological meanings.

The cinematic masterpiece that is Inside Out (2015) tackles the difficulties of growing into your emotions through prepubescent years, and does so in a very clear and humorous manner. It has done so through personifying emotions based on the concepts of social constrictions on positive behaviour, depression and the requirement of familial communication and support during these times. This movie is aimed at children and young adults, age brackets struggling with their emotive identity, which is why the metaphorical nature of storytelling is imperative especially with younger audiences as “Fiction is the lie through which we tell the truth ,” as stated by Albert Camus. Ideologies are best communicated through didactic films such as Inside Out. SOCIAL EXPECTATIONS

Adolescents experience several types of maturation, including cognitive development, psychosocial, and physical changes. During puberty, the body and mind transition in a series of complex processes and may impact psychosocial factors. These changes can be dramatic when it comes to an adolescent’s behavior and emotions due to the sudden surge of testosterone and/or estrogen (Trotman 2013).

In America, racism as well as race relations are generally extremely sensitive subjects that are often brushed underneath the rug. Earlier this year, Jordan Peele’s Get Out graced the big screen, and left audiences with a great deal to digest. Peele’s first cinematic debut touched on the delicate topics of racism and the continuous devaluing of African American culture by “liberal” Caucasians in American suburbs. In this essay, one will explore the ways in which works written by modern political thinkers such as Nietzsche and Marx effortlessly add perspective through various theories on the difficulties brought to light in the motion picture, Get Out.

Adolescence can be defined as “a developmental period or transition from childhood to adulthood; it involves biological, cognitive and socioemotional changes. Adolescence begins at approximately 10-13 years of age and ends in the late teens.” During this period in an adolescent’s life, their emotions are usually heightened and they tend to get into more conflicts with their parents. G. Stanley Hall calls this effect the storm and stress view in which teens are more adept to mood swings and conflicts due to the hormonal changes within their bodies. As the teen grows emotionally they become more aware of how their emotions affect others and they also learn how to communicate their feelings in more constructive ways. If a teen does not find a healthy outlet to express these symptoms, it can lead to depression, anger, academic difficulty, drug abuse and eating disorders.

Adolescence is a transitional time for youth, and parents as well, the brain is developing, making new neural connections, allowing the teen to think in new ways. It is also a time on emotional storm, with hormones surging, and identity forming, the teen, and parents can find themselves in a state of frustration. Fiore (2011) States “Adolescence is a complex process of growth and change” (p.191). This is also a time of vulnerability; As with any developing organism, damage can happen, and change the intended outcome. If all goes well the final result will be a normal, healthy adult ready to live and independent, and, or interdependent prosperous life.

The movie I chose to watch is “Clueless”. The film centers around a girl named Cher. She is a popular, attractive and wealthy teenage girl. She lives in a world of glamor and fashion. She lives in a Beverly Mansion with her widowed father. Dionne, Cher’s best friend, is equally rich and attractive. They both have a mindset that being fashionable and luxurious is considered high up the pedestal of popularity. She has an older ex-stepbrother named Josh, who works for her father. Cher and Josh have a prodding type of relationship; as they both mock each other for being who they are. Josh believes that Cher is a typical materialistic and superficial teenage girl. As Cher’s grades drop, she

The movie is an excellent portrayal of the current situation of our lifestyle in this generation. To be frank, it is a deep movie that has humor to help captivate and keep the attention of the audience drawn in. The movie starts of in the beginning with a man named Theodore and is life is currently empty of void of purpose and love. His life is mundane and he does not know what to do. There is flashbacks of what we can quickly determine what seemed like his former wife but they were going through an impending divorce. The Prevalence of Divorce: the current marriage rate that will ultimately end in a divorce or a separate couple is around 50%. He is another statistic that fits into that category, which makes sense because divorces are more common in the United States than in all of Europe. There was not a full detailed explanation of why he was going to divorce his wife, or why they were going through that possible time together, or rather apart. But there were a few hints and comments throughout the movie, and from what I gathered is that she was his childhood sweetheart. It is a high probability they dated when they were young and got married at a relatively young age. One of the predictors of divorce was age at marriage. Which is when people who met as teens are more prone to getting a divorce than those who marry at a young age. Also, marital satisfaction could have been low after a certain point in their marriage. Theodore met up with his wife

Adolescence is the distinct transitional stage between childhood and adulthood in human development, extending primarily over the teenage years and terminating legally when the age of majority is reached (Rathus, 2014). However in some instances, this biological, cognitive, social and emotional maturity may not be reached until a later stage and may be dictated by gender. Adolescence is characterised by rapidly changing and unpredictable behaviour (Freud, as cited in Rathus 2014), heightened and unstable emotions (Hall, as cited in Rathus 2014), disturbances in identity, the gradual development of one’s moral reasoning (Kohlberg, as cited in Rathus, 2014) and the gradual establishment of one’s independence. Several of these changes may occur at differing phases in adolescent growth. This development is categorized into three separate stages; early adolescence, middle adolescence, and late adolescence. Early Adolescence, commencing from the ages of eleven or twelve until the age of fourteen, comprises of several features such as rapid biological development and maturity, heightened stress levels and limited coping capabilities. On the other hand, middle adolescence, from the approximate age of fourteen to sixteen, involves the gradual cease of biological change, an increase in coping strategies and declined stress levels. Furthermore, late adolescence, commencing from the age of sixteen until the age of eighteen or nineteen, encompasses physical maturity, whereby the
