Teen Movies from 1999
This list will consist of several teen movies released from January to December of the year 1999, which is considered to be the best year for teen movies. I will post my thoughts about said movie separately in their own section. I'm not gonna include movies like American Beauty, Liberty Heights & The Wood, even though their good films but there geared towards adults rather than teens. And I'm definitely not gonna count Disney movies like Don't Look Under The Bed & Smart House, and the Olsen twins led movie Passport to Paris. Now The Rage: Carrie 2 is rather an enigma to me, don't know if I should include it or not.

If you like Deon Richmond from "Not Another Teen Movie", you'll definitely gonna like him in this movie. The film is very enjoyable and has a pretty good message about focusing on your priorities and your future because not everything is gonna be played out like in your fantasies. Deon Richmond makes this movie his own, which is such a shame because this is his only movie as a leading man. Also, Donald Faison from Clueless & Scrubs is in this movie as a womanizing hustler and Anthony Anderson from Black-ish is in there in a minor role as a gangster. Also, there's a Terminator sequence as a dream, so there's that! - DirectorSofia CoppolaStarsKirsten DunstJosh HartnettJames WoodsA group of male friends become obsessed with five mysterious sisters who are sheltered by their strict, religious parents in suburban Detroit in the mid 1970s.May 19 in the Cannes Film Festival
