American Teen

I was the nice kid who studied a lot. I guess kinda geeky, but with some sports thrown into the mix. I would like to see the 7/31 screening.

None of the above

I was none of the above. I was an emotional wreck in high school.

I would like to attend the 7/22 screening if available.

Would love to see this movie

I was a “cool” band girl in high school (seriously the band people were usually the more popular ones in high school - one would always get to be prom king or queen!), I would love to see this movie on the 22nd!

American Teen Screening (7/31 preferred)

I was, at various times and in various contexts, a geeky, rebellious, jock prince heartthrob, a mix I still try to maintain…just to keep ‘em guessing. Oh, and Adam, I’ll actually be in town for Lollapalooza and RADIOHEAD (!) the next day.

American Teen

I was a geek; whether it was theater or science, I never let go of my nerd-itude.

July 22 screening, por favor
