Raise Your Voice | comment |
A movie which Hilary Duff made during her Lizzie McGuire phase that many believe showed her acting chops. (The scenes where her character dealt with losing her brother were surprisingly believeable.)Duff plays Terri Fletcher, her usual perky character except with occasional Wangst due to the fact that her brother Paul died in a freak car accident with Terri as a passenger. Terri is "forced" to disobey her dad because it's her destiny to go to music school in Los Angeles, where she finds the usual Stock Characters: Jay Corgan (Oliver James): Terri's English boyfriend Denise Gilmore (Dana Davis): Terri's Sassy Black roommate Engelbert "Kiwi" Wilson (Johnny Lewis): Fun Personified as a nerd Robin Childers (Lauren C. Mayhew): the Alpha Bitch Sloane (Kat Dennings): A Goth Deadpan Snarker Mr. Torvald (John Corbett): Terri's Cool TeacherYes, it's pretty much just as much a Cliché Storm as it sounds like, complete with a Concert Climax. | |

Drunk Driver | |
Raise Your Voice / int_1392fbe7 | comment |
Drunk Driver: On the first night of summer, Paul is killed by a drunk driver, with Terri as a passenger (although the latter's physical injuries are relatively minor). The parents, naturally, have a pretty difficult time recovering from this. | |

Break the Cutie: Terri already has a fairly tense relationship with her father, who is adamantly against her pursuing her passions in music. After the traumatic death of her brother, she's pressured into going anyway where she struggles to fit in, experiences stage fright and anxiety, is antagonized by Robin, and despite forming a relationship with Jay, has to deal with him possibly cheating on her with Robin. | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
Raise Your Voice / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: Robin is no saint, and her tantrum over Terri getting her vocal part may have been a little inappropriate, but she's not wrong that Terri was given the part not because she was the best singer or the most well-prepared, but because she "deserves" it for her improvement. Robin's skills are higher and she's shown to have pretty good work ethic, despite being a jerkass — and unlike Terri, she actually shows up to class and doesn't have meltdowns every time she fails to do something right. | |

Raise Your Voice / int_83902d45 | comment |
Ambiguously Christian: The movie as a whole. Terri keeps a cross necklace that belonged to Paul, sings in a church choir, and is seen praying a number of times, but never talks about her faith. In addition, many of the musical numbers can be interpreted to have a religious message, and the movie was originally pitched to be explicitly faith-based. | |

Adults Are Useless | |
Raise Your Voice / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: Played with. Terri's mother and aunt are shown to be resourceful, caring and quick-thinking when it comes to Terri's secret summer adventure, and her teachers at Bristol-Hillman all seem to know what they're doing and are genuinely invested in their students. However, Terri's father, already rigid and overly traditional, easily falls for their obvious scheme of Terri's secret enrollment in the music program. He only manages to discover the lie when he stumbles upon an invitation to the final concert — not the (likely fairly massive, considering the size of the school) tuition payment, which goes unmentioned. | |
