To Save a Life (2010)

I watched the trailer for an upcoming movie, To Save a Life, when instead, I should be studying for my Mythology final that's in 4.5 hours.

Yeah yeah, another movie that exaggerates the cliques of high school. But evidently, this movie plans to add a bit o' twist to the usual recipe of such a film. That little added bit is suicide, and reaching out to others.

Now, the "reaching-out-to-others" bit isn't so new either, but mixing it with teen suicide creates a new concoction. And the theme of this movie has me stunned, quite frankly.

Watching this trailer brings back memories of my sophomore year in high school. Maybe there weren't characters and situations in my school that even remotely mirror those in the upcoming film, but the theme of suicide definitely stirs something within me.

I do believe I'll add this movie to my to-go-see list.
