Buzz on Youth In Revolt:
"C.D. Payne's relentlessly wiseass 1993 novel, subtitled "The Journals of Nick Twisp," transfers to the screen with its humor and high energy mostly intact and a thoroughly engaging lead performance by Michael Cera." -The Hollywood Reporter
"Thanks to a wickedly hilarious performance from Michael Cera (easily the best of his career), this brainy teenage sex comedy does manage to dole out a handful of great scenes, making it worthy of your hard-earned box office dollars." -Cinematical

Synopsis:
Youth In Revolt is a coming-of-age comedy that puts a fresh and outrageous stamp on a tale of adolescent obsession and rebellion. Starring Michael Cera (also of the Oscar® winning film, Juno, and Superbad) and based on the acclaimed novel by C.D. Payne, Youth In Revolt is the story of Nick Twisp – a unique, but affable teen with a taste for the finer things in life like Sinatra and Fellini – who falls hopelessly in love with the beautiful, free-spirited Sheeni Saunders (Portia Doubleday) while on a family vacation. But family, geography and jealous ex-lovers conspire to keep these two apart. With Sheeni’s encouragement, Nick abandons his dull, predictable life and develops a rebellious alter ego: Francois. With his ascot, his moustache and his cigarette, Francois will stop at nothing to be with Sheeni, and leads Nick Twisp on a path of destruction with unpredictable and uproarious consequences.
