The Directors Cut vs. Young Adult and New Years Eve

This week The Directors Cut reviews Young Adult, and count down the Top Ten Movies about Babysitters.  Young Adult is the new movie written by Diablo Cody, an attempt to win another Academy Award since her debut with Juno. Young Adult stars Charlize Theron who plays a writer for young adult novels, and shortly after her divorce she finds out her high school boyfriend just had a baby.

Fortunately for Diablo Cody she had either the worst high school experience, or the best, since she understands the high school dynamic better than anyone else.
