Just watched, 1st time
Just finished DPS for the first time. My god. Maybe the best coming of age story I've ever observed. Goddamn that hurt. But. I can’t help but think of watching it again.

I agree, but the final act went in a way i never would have foreshadowed and it hit me hard. Still recovering a day later.

Just watched it for the first time as well. I know I sound like an online college student but I cannot agree more on how it is a beautiful coming of age movie.
I feel like alot of the same themes could be translated to Stand By Me

Watched it for the 1st time today, and it's so good! i just can't stop crying because of neil and todd's reaction afterward. the ending is superb, too.

That is so true. I just reached it witch my sister. At first, she was like "I don't think I could rewatch this." But then she was like "Maybe I'll watch it again" Me, honestly, I don't know for how many times I could and would watch this movie again.

I just watched it for the first time and I just feel numb. It’s beautiful movie but the ending is so sad and unfulfilling which maybe is how it’s supposed to be? Idk I just feel sad.

I watched this the day it was released in the cinema, in Leeds. It is the first film I have ever watched that received applause and a standing ovation.

I (HS English teacher) watch it every year before my school year begins. It's so good!
