I’m looking for films like ‘Thirteen’. Any you all would recommend?

I have been looking into:

Mean Creek
Go Ask Alice
Speak

Any others I should get?

P.S. Already have ‘Kids’
How mature.

Okay, let me broaden the description a bit more:

- Movies about troubled teenagers
- Drug addiction
- Mental instability
- Depression

Examples:

- Speak

- Go Ask Alice
- The Basketball Diaries
- Requiem for a Dream
- Bully
- Kids
- Panic in Needle Park

Those are the movies I have so far.

Any serious responses/recommendations?
garden state is somewhat close to that description, i liked it

included
Drug addiction
- Mental instability
- Depression

but not teenagers

Ah that will do just fine

Any more recommendations?

Almost Famous
Leon, The Professional
Stand by Me

Trainspotting

A Beautiful Mind
American Psycho
Stranger than Fiction

Good Will Hunting
Adaptation
Barton Fink
Garden State
Sideways

. man knows his shit
Thank you very much

Do Half-Nelson and Factotum fall into one of these categories?

great post, i’m gonna look for the movies on the list i haven’t seen cause i liked pretty much liked everyone of these you listed that i have seen so i think i might like your picks
If you guys like those picks so much you might like the rest of my top 25+ list, made it awhile back when I was bored.

God I feel like a faggot linking myspace, my apologies.

seen all but 2 of those movies (and i’ll be renting those soon) and only disliked 1 of the movies listed
Check out The Squid and the Whale

Very cool movie.
Drug addiction
– Drugstore Cowboy

Troubled Teenagers
- The Tracey Fragments
Gridlock’d

A very realistic movie about drugs and it shows how hard it is for a couple of poor junkies that want to quit, but gets little or no help from a fucked up system.

I got a lot more sympathy for addicts after seeing that film.

for Drug addiction I’ll add
- Spun
Girl Interrupted
The Cider House Rules
Mad Love
Bully
Swimming Pool
American Beauty
Donnie Darko
The Panic in Needle Park
Wonderland
The Prize Winner of Defiance, Ohio

The last 3 are on my to see list

Wonderland was really strange

tons of good movies listed there, has allot of what you’re looking for
Official Website:
Frank Perry is a lifer; in prison for the rest of his natural born days. He’s never had a problem with that: he did the crime; he’ll do the time. Until now. He receives a letter telling him that his only and much loved daughter is critically ill following an overdose. He knows that he must see her and to do that he’ll have to escape. But he can’t do it alone. A motley crew of younger associates are assembled to enact his plan: Lenny Drake, Brodie and Viv Baptista. As they prepare to break out Frank’s focus is distracted by the arrival of a young con James Lacey – a reminder of days long lost. As the new kid on the block Lacey also attracts the sadistic attention of Tony, the drug-addict brother of wing-king Rizza. Personality conflicts puts the escape in jeopardy and Frank is forced to find the energy and courage of the man he one was.
