I tend to prefer things with a bit more grit or sizzle, but Secret Life nonetheless has a special place in my heart. Shailene Woodley steals the show as Amy, an awkward and sensitive girl who plays the french horn in band, and has dreams of attending Julliard, but gets pregnant. Like Juno or Palindromes, there's an exploration into the desperation and vulnerability of love in adolescence.
