A Reaction Paper
There are times in adolescence when your romantic feelings change on a dime.
Perhaps it's hormonal. The girl you thought was a bother becomes the love of your life.
The boy you've had a crush on for years starts to come across as a jerk. The timing is
incorrect. When you look back half a lifetime, you can see how things might have turned
out differently if you hadn't been so stupid. "Flipped" by Rob Reiner does the searching.
Rob Reiner co-wrote and directed the 2010 American romantic comedy-drama
film Flipped, which is based on Wendelin Van Draanen's 2001 novel of the same name.

the following six years, which is challenging given that they attend the same school and
are neighbors. But if Juli eventually turns her gaze elsewhere, will Bryce then become
transfixed? Bryce and Juli are followed from elementary school to junior high as they
experience triumph and tragedy, family strife and first love while learning the lessons

The movie Flipped is very innocent and sweet. It transports you back to the first
"love" you ever professed in your youth. You won't be let down by the actors'
performances, especially the two young protagonists who did a really good job of
