This movie is about a teen that has to make up his mind whether to continue to get by in life or actually put in the effort to graduate. It's quite complicating since he is an artist that gets easily distracted. With the help of his newfound friend, he finally has a reason to strive to succeed in life, while falling in love with her. The movie is inspiring to all of the kids out there that don't attempt to put the effort into life.
One line that specifically highlights this is the line "Anything Is Possible". It is said at the end of the movie but should be emphasized more throughout the movie since it is the main message.
This movie is different because it shows the other side of high school kids; the "bad" side. With an amazing performance by Highmore, The Art of Getting By may just be the best "underdog" movie of 2011.
