A Story Aside - Perks of Being a Wallflower/Institutionalized
Thoughts on the 2012 film the Perks of Being a Wallflower, and how it works within the generational story model, with an associated look at the 1983 Suicidal Tendencies song "Institutionalized" and how each represents (and perceives) Generation X. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Perks_of_Being_a_Wallflower_(film) On IMDB https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1659337/ Music video for Institutionalized https://youtu.be/LoF_a0-7xVQ Brad & Lex listening to Institutionalized https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTP_oE6jm1M https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suicidal_Tendencies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Muir https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institutionalized_(song) Emma Watson hairstyles (only because I was wondering if I was remembering correctly about why her hair is short in this movie) https://www.harpersbazaar.com/beauty/hair/g8011/emma-watson-hair/ Episodes like this one, that are primarily about movies or stories, will be under this "A Story Aside" imprint. (Previous ones have simply had "Aside" at the start but that seemed incomplete.) They'll use the generational stories model described at http://stories.generationalize.com/ Some worthwhile starting points there are Introduction to Generations, the Generational Attributes and the Four Stories.
