Getting By

I thought I was the only one who at times becomes unmotivated due to the fact that life means death. But apparently not. In the movie The Art of Getting By we meet George (played by Freddie Highmore who you'll recognise as the little boy Charlie from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Tim Burton). George is unmotivated and depressed at the age of 17. He should be finishing high school and trying to get into college, but alas his melancholia prevents him for handing in a single piece of work. Sally (played by Emma Roberts) meets George and they have an awkward friendship/relationship. And eventually... well, I'll let you watch the movie. Go grab a copy and watch it with M&Ms and Pringles at hand.
