Just like The Catcher in the Rye, the lead character moves around without any specific aims at all, throughout the movie.
Actually I didn't recall why the narrator of the novel left his home or dorm in the first place. I read it more than a decade ago.
Not like the novel, in this movie, the main character is gay played by a gay actor, Jonathan Groff(Kristoff in Frozen).
The IMDB describes the main character as "cocky."
But I don't buy that.
He was just hurt (maybe when he came out to his mother, her reaction was not what he had expected) and left everything he had and tried anything seemingly different.
But things kept on being complicated when he didn't face his own sexuality and just turned away every time.
In a sense, I cannot blame him for that.
