Synopsis
Bang Bang You're Dead (2003) is a Guy Ferland drama-thriller you can watch online on iFILM. It follows Trevor, a high-schooler bullied so relentlessly that he has already said the unsayable — a threat to blow up the football team.
After that threat, Trevor (Ben Foster) wears the label of a school shooter-in-waiting, and the whole town keeps its distance. The one adult who still sees a kid, not a headline, is drama teacher Val (Tom Cavanagh), who casts him as the lead in a play about teenage violence. Then the school moves to shut the production down, and the fragile thing holding Trevor together starts to give.
Made while America was raw from real school tragedies, the film rides on Ben Foster, whose Trevor sits right on the line between victim and threat and never lets you settle. It's a tough, uneasy watch about what a silent teenager swallows. Janel Moloney and Randy Harrison fill out the cast. Stream Bang Bang You're Dead (2003) online on iFILM.
