From this task I have learnt that coming of age films throughout history have the following codes and conventions:
- A lesson must be learned, but does not need to be by the main protagonist.
- The main protagonist, whom the film centres must be under, or equal to, 18 years old.
- There doesn't need to be a distinctive antagonist.
- Romance can be prominent but is not a necessary genre.
- The protagonist has, but is not restricted to, two side-kicks that help them out. They can be best friends at the start, or the movie is a bonding experience between them.
- The title is funny and/or quirky.
