Everyone gets to go through the experience of growing up. Even though most people's adolescence is unique to them, there are certain themes that ring true. There's an entire genre about this transitional period called coming-of-age. Coming-of-age films such as The Breakfast Club, Superbad, and Dazed and Confused all are from the perspective of young people striving for long-lasting personal growth. This can be brought on through romantic relationships, a big life change, or loss of innocence.
