Plot Summary: "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.

This book is one of my favorites! I can't believe it's being turned into a movie, and Michael Cera starring in it. This is going to be amazing.

I was psyched to hear about this, although Cera playing a 14 year old might be a bit of a stretch. I can't think of a better young actor for the job though. And then I noticed he apparently helped with the screenplay and the film also has Buscemi, Liotta and Zach Galifinakis. There's no way it's going to be as good as the book, but it'll be fun watching them try.
