The abuse by his aunt is hinted during Charlie's breakdown a couple of times as well as when he kisses Sam, those scenes that were "trippy" or did not make sense were flashbacks of his aunt. I would recommend you read the book, it's full of beautiful quotes like the one you liked, it helped many of us to go through our own high school time. Such a comfort book/film for those of us who felt like 'wallflowers' during our elementary/high school days.
This was the first book I felt I truly connected with the characters mindset/thoughts. I read it the first time in 6th grade and fell in love. I couldn’t believe how excellent the film adapted it!
how very pure of seb to not get get what charlie’s aunt helen did to him also i feel like this movie really resurrected Heroes by david bowie in this newer generation, it wasn’t very known with like the demographic of this book and movie so it’s very understandable how a 14/15 year old (freshman) wouldn’t know that song
Fr i love seb but how did he not get it? I remember being in the cinema and everyone collectively gasping when we realised. It totally explains charlies reactions with his relationships with mary elizabeth, sam and even the kisses with patrick too. Maybe seb just needs a rewatch to get it?
@@rebeccas1771 yeah i’m sure trying to stay like “on” for the reaction he could’ve missed it, i’ve also noticed some male reactors i watch can sometimes be a little slow to pick up on those things. i’ll give it to seb, it’s not suuuuper overt but yeah im sure on a rewatch or like editing he got it
Oh yeah, I've definitely noticed male reactors tend to miss the subtlety of Charlie's abuse. But I agree, I'm sure Seb caught it once he was editing. Also, ABSOLUTELY right about Heroes by David Bowie regaining popularity when this movie came out. I was about 15/16yrs old when I saw this movie in theaters, and it made me obsessed with David Bowie and The Smiths 😂😂
Re: the bullying in school I’ve heard people criticize the bullying in this film as unrealistic. But, while this came out in 2012 it’s set in the 90s and I can confirm that the depiction of school bullying in the 90s is SPOT ON. The guy who just grabs his book and rips the cover? That kind of crap 100% happened in the 90s. A teacher poking fun at a student and everyone collectively bullying him with that nickname? Believable. The casual bombing of the gay f slur over the tiniest infraction of something “uncool” that was “cool” three months ago. Literally happened to me on the regular. Junior High friends suddenly ghosting you because a new friend is friends with someone who bullies you. Absolutely.
29:44 oh boy…..when I saw this my heart broke 31:10 if u go back to those flashes u can hear a kiss on lips sound effect and the aunt saying “your sister asleep” and…..god this making me sick u get the idea of what I’m trying to say
This is my favorite book of all-time and this adaptation does so much right with it. Probably one of the best book-to-movie adaptations out there, in my opinion
@@andieb3632I hate all the Twilight movies but there’s a reason why the first one is tolerable because it was directed by the author Not that I’ve read the books I can only assume the first movie is the best adaptation All of Twilight is bad but the first movie is a guilty pleasure
That's prob cause the guy who wrote the book made the film. I read this book in one sitting when I was a freshman or sophomore in high school with the smiths "asleep" on repeat at sundown on a school night. Such a good core memory
In the book the song was Landslide by Fleetwood Mac. Changing it to Heroes made it more triumphant…but also difficult to believe these kids not knowing who David Bowie is.
@@ellav7812 These were fringe-kids who were into Rocky Horror, Bob Dylan, Foreign films and Punk Rock. HOW THE HELL ARE THEY NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHO DAVID BOWIE IS?!?! If anything, Bowie would be their Patron Saint!
Hahaha I’m usually so emotional even watching people react to this movie, but Seb not understanding what Helen did to Charlie for so long was actually hilarious.
I received the book when I was 16 years old as a gift, I'm currently 25 and the movie is still a go-to as comfort after all these years as someone who can unfortunately relate to Charlie. I can wholeheartedly say that this book/movie saved my life. Thank you so much for reacting, Seb ❤
Yes, many families in the US use sir or ma'am sometimes when acknowledging our parents. It's a sign of respect. It's more of prevalent in southern US culture.
When Sam mentioned her abuse with the boss of her father, later on when Charlie was going to kiss her, he stated they were a lot alike; it alluded I believe to Charlie's Aunt abusing him. Subtle but important detail.
A wallflower is someone who observes instead of actively participating in society, often shy, reserved or socially awkward. I would really recommend reading the book, I saw this film the first time when I was around 12 years old I think and I struggled with understanding the ending (English is not my first language and I didn’t have Norwegian subtitles so it was a bit of a language barrier, and I also think I wasn’t aware of the abuse Charlie suffered from his aunt because I didn’t know it was a thing, luckily I grew up without knowing that there are grownups that could do that to kids). After watching it again when I was older I understood it better, and when I found out it was a book I wanted to read it. I read it half a year ago, and I read it all in one sitting. I cried. I was a bit unsure if I would like it because of how the book was written, with it being presented as letters Charlie was sending this anonymous friend but I ended up liking it. You learn a lot more about the characters and we se more of the relationship between Charlie and his sister and the family dynamic in general . We also learn more about aunt Helen and how she grew up.
Found this movie awhile back flipping thru channels and love it. The line "we accept the love we think we deserve" is so simple yet so poignant. I have used that on people several times and they look at me like i discovered fire. When delivering this philosophy, one must stare out into the great nothingness and sigh, hinting at some long dormant pain still worming its way into your heart. Shed a tear if you can.
This movie is one of my favorites ever. i have a special connection with it and feel a lot of the things Charlie feels in it and its a really hard movie for me to watch but i love it. Especially the scene with him having that panic attack...very very special movie to me
I think it shows there's a myriad of complex emotions from abused people especially being young and from an older familial person and trying to figure it out and why; whether it's confusion, hate, etc. feelings towards the person. Why he keeps switching his descriptions of his aunt. His favorite person and then saying she's insane, etc.
It captured it so perfectly. Abuse is so complex. I struggled a lot with that as I have never been able to hate the person that abused me, even though I wanted to and it made sense to hate them.
I remember watching this movie for the first time and loved it. Then I read the book and loved it even more, it's one of my favourite books of all time. The reason this movie is so well adapted is because the writer of the book, Stephen Chbosky, also directed the film. I think that's why both, the book and the movie, are so moving because it transmit everything as the writer wanted. It is his own vision perfectly adapted.
this is a comfort movie for me, ironically. one of the only movies (and books) i’ve watched that actually made me feel like im not alone. im so happy you watched it, can’t even count how many times i watched this in high school
Thanks for reviewing this movie - definitely one of my favorite films. And if you have not been informed yet, you asked what it was about what abuse he received from his beloved aunt, it was sexual abuse. It still is a very heavy story and did a great job in recognizing the unspoken pain people carry.
I love this movie so much.i clicked as soon as I saw u posted this. We haven’t had a new reaction to this movie in the reaction space on YT in a long time
Love these slice of life mostly happy stories where you just feel something darker bubbling underneath during the whole runtime. "Mid 90s" has a similar vibe.
"Wait what did she do?" It was made very clear before that scene where he says "what she did to me" in voice over. The aunt is all 'keep it a secret' and hands on things (but also that scene where clearly, she is playing around with his parts)? I mean, they couldn't make it cleaner other than a big "sexual abuse" sign with flashing red lights and a clown horn.
Seb has easily become one of my favorites… genuinely caring about people is a heart warming quality. Social media is so weird how we care so much about seb or other creators but we dont even know them lol
12:00 i'm not from the US but this is how i understand the high school ages to be: -freshman (14/15) -sophmore (15/16) -junior (16/17) -senior (17/18) 18:38 - remember the teacher's quote? "We accept the love we think we deserve" sam (emma w) doesn't think she deserves charlie...
Glad you did this. I've been patiently waiting for someone else to react to this since I've already watched the other available ones. The person he's writing to is us. The reader of the book this is based on. Freshmen are 13 Seniors are 17-18.
@@janahall7295I heard her accent in the Bling Ring was very closely based on the real person she’s portraying, but English is not my first language so I’m not really an expert on accents idk
Wait…have you not seen Rocky Horror Picture Show Seb? It’s a cult classic. I used to go watch the midnight showing every Friday night at the old movie theater in town for YEARS! People would dress up and we all had ques from scenes to interact with the movie. Some people on full costume would reenact the scenes while it was playing. Some of the best memories of my late teen years! Please watch it!
My class had read both the book and watched the movie in school and I absolutely loved the, definitely one of my favorites! This was also in a special education class so it made sense why our teacher had us read this.
When I tell you, last month in may on my birthday at the mall, the song Come On Eileen started playing in American Eagle and I danced through the entire song and didn’t even care
how did u misunderstand the abuse like him being touched and kissed was bringing back the memories he tried to bury as a child, all the flashes her saying his sister was alseep, their "little secret" omg lol broke me into pieces when i first realized
My mom showed me this movie when I was 11 and has shaped my entire world and life since. I am at work and the scream that came out of me when I saw you uploaded this!11
In the book, when he gets dragged into a room for his To Kill a Mockingbird HW, he actually beats them all up and walks away, with just more anxiety lol
12:49 - that truth hit me hard too. P.s. Seb makes me want to be British again. I was raised in London 'till I was 7; am American now. But whenever I watch his vids, my accent comes out again. Seb really is charming actually.
It shows and insinuates what aunt Helen did to him during his breakdown. Pretty bummed you didn’t catch it bc it makes such a huge impact to the story!

When I saw this movie the first time I immediately watched it a second time the same night. I noticed the director of the movie wrote the book it was based on and downloaded the book and read it in 2 days. I really like this movie.
Thanks for yet another great reaction! That's two of my top ten movies in a row, watched by one of my favorite reactors (don't know if that spelled right😂). Could you react to "the last samurai", or a movie commentary if you've seen it? It's my favorite movie of all time 😊 Love from Norway ❤️
11:11 - OMG you DON'T KNOW The Rocky Horror Picture Show??? You SOOO need to see [the movie, or a full shadow cast performance] not necessarily in that order... does anyone else want to weigh in, give Seb some advice about Rocky?? :)
Also fun fact the woodshop teacher is Tom savini legendary vfx artist worked on a lot of the classics dude is literally the mastermind behind every gory practical effect in horror movies
The truth about Aunt Helen is even more messed up in the book, cause he frequently calls her his favorite aunt, has you 100% convinced that she was one of his personal champions, and her death was just another thing he blamed himself for. And then we find out the truth. He wasn't just keeping it from everyone else. He was keeping it from himself.
We have quite a few guys that were "jocks" in our school that were a lot like the guy in this movie and actually, some that you would have thought were on the debate team or in the science club.
I need Seb to do follow ups to movies and read along to comments maybe a quick 3 min video because we need to debrief Charlie’s abuse but overall great reaction
Shoutout to the sister for recognizing Charlie was in crisis, trying to keep him calm, & having a friend call the cops right away
You won’t believe how FAST i clicked on this. Absolutely one of my most favorite movies of all time. The tunnel scene still gets me

I will never not cry when perks of being a wallflower is mentioned
When I saw this movie the first time I immediately watched it a second time the same night. I noticed the director of the movie wrote the book it was based on and downloaded the book and read it in 2 days.
I really like this movie.
I really enjoyed this movie personally. I discovered it one night and watched it mostly for Emma, but got hooked pretty quickly.
best coming of age movie imo.. absolutely love it. Great performance by Logan Lerman
2:02 "it's British"
Seb: 🇬🇧you 🇬🇧 talking 🇬🇧about 🇬🇧 me🇬🇧
Thanks for yet another great reaction! That's two of my top ten movies in a row, watched by one of my favorite reactors (don't know if that spelled right😂).
Could you react to "the last samurai", or a movie commentary if you've seen it? It's my favorite movie of all time 😊
Love from Norway ❤️
Such a heartbreaking and heartwarming story ❤.great reaction
11:11 - OMG you DON'T KNOW The Rocky Horror Picture Show??? You SOOO need to see [the movie, or a full shadow cast performance] not necessarily in that order... does anyone else want to weigh in, give Seb some advice about Rocky?? :)
this is my comfort movie
Idk if people realize but both the movie and the book I'm sure are either set in the late 80s early 90s hence the mixtapes and all that
11:23 you NEED to watch Rocky Horror Picture Show!! A cult classic!
One of my all time favorites, thanks Seb!!!
Seb, if you haven’t already you NEED to watch Napoleon dynamite, it’s the wackiest comedy ever. I feel like you’d have a fun time with it
you not knowing the rocky horror picture show hurts 😩😩😩 now you have to watch it
Also fun fact the woodshop teacher is Tom savini legendary vfx artist worked on a lot of the classics dude is literally the mastermind behind every gory practical effect in horror movies
The guy who plays Brad Hayes also plays Needy's boyfriend in 'Jennifer's Body'.
The truth about Aunt Helen is even more messed up in the book, cause he frequently calls her his favorite aunt, has you 100% convinced that she was one of his personal champions, and her death was just another thing he blamed himself for.
And then we find out the truth.
He wasn't just keeping it from everyone else. He was keeping it from himself.
This is my 5th favorite movie ever and my personal favorite depiction of high school in film
@sebscreen you have to add The Rocky Horror Picture Show to your list!!
We have quite a few guys that were "jocks" in our school that were a lot like the guy in this movie and actually, some that you would have thought were on the debate team or in the science club.
“i hate violence but UCE!!” killed MEEE
NEVER mess with the quiet kid
This was filmed at my high school during my senior year!
I have to comment just to say that this is my favorite movie, I'm glad that you watched ❤
17:25 we neeed to see a reaction to rocky horror omg
I just knew you’d put *that* scene in the intro and I was ready to skip past it immediately 😭
In the book, the food place they went to hang out wasn't King's. It was Bob's Big Boy.
I'm months late, but in the US you typically start Freshman year when you're 14 and Senior year at 17.
I need Seb to do follow ups to movies and read along to comments maybe a quick 3 min video because we need to debrief Charlie’s abuse but overall great reaction
