coming of age movies list

 

Indeed, the best coming-of-age movies are almost always fish-out-of-water films; the water is our youth, and coming of age is how we acclimate ourselves to it

It is a movie where the central plot revolves around a person suddenly facing a life changing experience, trial or tribulation.That person once was naive or childish or pre-pubescent is now suddenly older and wiser because of the experience. They see life and their place in the universe for the first time.  The title list below have been updated alphabetically
