does no-one except Hollywood make teen movies?
apart from LDC doing disabled, none of these got Oscar nominations, except for Ellen Page (Canadian) and Saiorse Ronan (Irish.
Reese Witherspoon would also deserve a nod for FREEWAY
Kieran Culkin in THE MIGHTY (even if he is doing disabled)

No mention that Juno & the actress who played her were both female at the time. She wasn't Elliot then, she hadn't even chosen that name then & didn't identify as male until well over a decade later. The teen girl protagonist certainly wasn't played by a male or trans actor.

I just don't understand why the list was almost completely white.
Ariyan A. Johnson's performance in Just Another Girl on the I. R. T. is just one of countless powerful teen performances in non-white coming of age films. Love ya'll, but please do better.

Reese Witherspoon is ranked WAAAY too low. Tracy Flick is iconic and that is entirely due to Reese. Reese also gave a brilliant performance in the criminally underrated Freeway. I'd also add Cuba Gooding, Jr in Boyz in the Hood.

Great list. For me Reese Witherspoon in Election gives an Oscar Nomination worthy performance. Its insane she wasnt nominated (she could have even win. Also, where is Carrey Mulligan in An Education? That performance was grand.

Great picks, but how could you not even mention Heather Matarazzo from Welcome to the Dollhouse or Mandy Moore from Saved? Good to see Winona Ryder got a mention from Heathers, one of the best teen movies ever!

Elsie Fisher's performance in Eighth Grade was really excellent, especially given her young age. The film was so realistic, and I could easily relate to her character Kayla, and the troubles she was facing.

Cuba Goldings portrayal of a young man growing up in south central LA and dealing with racism police brutality alongside first love was fantastic and ground breaking. Boyz in the Hood classic

I would have expanded the list to include Mandy Moore in How to Deal and Kristen Stewart in Speak. Matt Dillon is also pretty iconic in both The Outsiders and Little Darlings.

I totally agree! Loved Ladybird, and I've worked with handicapped children and adults for 40 years. Johnny Depp and Leonardo's performances (not to mention Juliet Lewis) blew me away!

Lady Bird, sympathetic? I guess to some. But that's Greta Gerwig thing anyway.
Anyway, I feel like River Phoenix so far below is worse than getting no mention at all.

Carrie performance is beyond great, is so perfect, what a gem of a movie it is. And to think that I just watched this great film just a month ago for the very first time.

I love Reese as Tracy. The author of Election has a sequel and itd be fun for her to revisit the roll as Tracy is older (and not a politician) in the new book.

James Dean doesn't vaguely look like a teenager in Rebel without a Cause. He looks 30. (He's 24) Great performance, but I never bought he was a teenager.

How about Ray Winstone in Scum, Fernando De Silva in Pixote, and Jean-Pierre Laud in The 400 Blows? Then again, maybe those aren't really teen movies?

river phoenix did die young but it wasn't after Stand by Me, he was around 23 when we died after doing several more movies, but definitely way too soon

Ariyan A. Johnson in Just Another Girl on the I. R. T. should've been on the list or been an honorable mention. Very underrated film and performance.

Id add in the honorable mentions Keke Palme in Akeelah and the Bee. Those facial expression really sold her performance.
