Based on the book by Adrian Tan. Asian teenagers struggle to get past the awkwardness of phone calls and dating.

An epic movie which reflected teenage sentiments before the turn of the century. Too bad Melody Chen married the bad guy in the Porsche in real life. :P

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A surprisingly well-written and acted film that was made during a time when the Singapore film industry was nascent. For a small dose of 1990's Singapore nostalgia and music (oh we have such short cultural memories), The Teenage Textbook Movie, though slightly off-beat, has a special place in Singapore's cinematic history. We need more movies like this.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
