Jan 5, 2015 good footage, wasted. See more Jan 2, 2015 I thought it was really interesting to learn about the birth of the teenagers. Had no idea how the world wars contributed to that. Tons of great footage. A little disappointed it didn't dissect more recent teenage culture. See more Oct 7, 2014 Helpful insight and unique way of demonstrating the subject but I feel like something was missing. See more Jul 16, 2014 This was an interesting documentary about young people in America, England and Germany from the industrial revolution until just after WWII, when they started using the term teenage. I would suggest watching it. See more Mar 25, 2014 A companion piece to the book Teenage: The Creation of Youth Culture, 1875-1945. As the title states we're exploring the development of youth culture from 1875 to 1945. So, this film does not venture into teen culture of the 1950s, 1960s, or beyond. This was the most disappointing part, that the doc did not draw any connections between this time period and the decades to come. The young actors styled to look like teens of various times and places with journal entries narrated to tell their specific stories worked well. However, it is all the archival materials that bring the formation of the term teenagers to life. See more Mar 5, 2014 A film celebrating a myth. See more Read all reviews
