The list of paintings that a teenager prefers makes it possible to judge his life preferences.

The influence of teen movies on the development of all mankind is very great. For adults, watching a movie does not cause any long-term feelings. Even after crying over a good melodrama, an adult the next day can forget the movie he watched the day before. With young people, things are much more difficult.
