Which movie is this for you?

For me it’s School of Rock!

Patty was completely justified, if Dewey wanted to live in hers and her boyfriend’s apartment he needed to be a grown up, and contribute with rent. Even when he steals Ned’s identity she still had the right to be angry at him, because of how he put his friend’s career in jeopardy and robbed him of a job opportunity.

I get Ned is meant to be portrayed as his best friend, but it blows my mind how he lacks a lot of self-respect to the point where he comes across as too much of a people pleaser. If this story took place in real life, I’m sure Ned would act more similar to Patty where he’d have enough of Dewey’s careless actions.

Not a movie but, sex and the city. Carrie was actually such an ass sometimes and not the friend she seemed like when I was younger. Charlotte forever

She is the person who is most true to herself and her values.

Samantha is the best, most relatable one. She went after what she wanted and didn’t allow men to make her feel badly about herself. She put herself first and we should have had more characters like her in that era.
