Ferris Bueller and Napoleon Dynamite just had a Cinematic Baby and his name is Tim Timmerman!

This is a great film for teens. It is rated PG-13 for a scene involving Marijuana and some bit of an odd teacher/student relationship. On their Facebook Page they address this:
The film is very anti-drug, but a character pulls out a joint and the main character takes it away from him.
The content is very on par with Napoleon Dynamite.
