The Toughest Scene I Wrote: Perks of Being a Wallflower Writer-Director Stephen Chbosky. Watching the movie, these pages (five total through the link) were exactly what I had wanted to see to compare the paper-to-screen translation. A great scene, and Chbosky gives excellent insight on changes he made.
On set, once I saw Logan Lerman delivering that performance, I realized that now I had my maypole to build my scene around. You cannot underestimate how when you write, “Charlie cries” — two words on a piece of paper — it’s not the same thing as this young man delivering this moment. I had to write new dialogue when his sister is talking to him on the phone, because my lead delivered something that was better than what I’d hoped. - Stephen Chbosky
