Are there any teenage movies from the UK?

Just watched Adventureland, and I wondered if there are any similar movies made in the UK. Or, she is out of my league, or The way way back...There must be some feel-good teenage movies from the UK, but I can't think of any

It's not very well know but Purely Belter is a great coming of age movie about two ne'er-do-wells from Newcastle.

I haven't seen it but Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging came to mind.

I wouldn't say it's really a feel-good movie though...

Im sure the drugs made them feel good?
Nope, you are 100% correct, i missed the feel good part of the question, my bad.

1996 British film “A beautiful thing” was a great feel-good teenage movie for me, but obviously might have niche appeal.

Love that film.

“Get Real” falls into that category too.

Gregory's Girl, though that's an old one now.

The inbetweeners movies are as close as I can think of

But if you're guna watch the movies you might as well just watch the series instead (which was much stronger)
