I'm looking for films about 16-23 year olds that could roughly be categorized as "coming of age" tales.
Especially, if possible, with one or multiple of the following plot devices:
-Taking time off from school/job
-Overcoming alcoholism
-Overcoming amphetamine use
-Dealing with parents' divorce (already seen Squid and the Whale, but definitely right ballpark)
-Dealing with the loss of a relative or close friend
-Becoming interested in Eastern world views
-Having a one-night stand
-Experiencing a mystical dream
Or, if you know of a movie that fits several of these criteria, but the protagonist fits a different age group, that works too.
Sorry for being so picky, this is very important to me and most movie search engines don't allow for this kind of specificity.
