Francois Dillinger
The actor/film: Michael Cera, Youth In Revolt (2010)
Anti-social behaviour: Francois est un bad boy. Giving a Gallic shrug to good behaviour, he pꦬrefers sex, smoking and criminal damage.
Rebel Cause: Francois isn't real. He's the🦂 alter-ego of virginal nice guy Nick Twisp (also Cera), who's chosen the Serge Gainsbourg 💎vibe in order to keep the girl of his dreams.
Rebellious or Revolting? Francois is kinda cool...but it must be well creepy for Nick's friends when he randomly starts behaving like un salaud .
Johnny Strabler
Actor/film: Marlon Brando, The Wild One (1953)
Anti-social behaviour: Whaddya got? As hea♒d of biker gang Black Rebels Motorcycle Club, Johnny has the means to wreak havoc. But he still goes all tongue-tied in the presence of a girly.
Rebel Cause: Johnny doesn’t give much away, although he hints at an abusive𒁏 childhood. Mainly, though, he doesn’t like sဣquares.
Rebellious or Revolting? Today's Asbo kids would 'ave him in seconds. But without Johnny's iconic poise, we'd pro🔜bably still be asking our parents permission to stay out past midnight.
Veronica Sawyer
Actress/film: Winona Ryder, Heathers (1989)
Anti-social behaviour: The ultimate about-turn. One minute she's an honorar🌸y Heather, the clique that runs her high school. The next, she's plotting their execution under the tutelage of canteen whack-job J.D. (Christian Slater).
Rebel Cause: Boredom with her job 🍌of being popular and shit. Her teen-angst bullshit now has a body count.
Rebellious or revolting? Serial killing really ought to put h𝔍er in the latter category. But her Swatch dogs and Diet Coke head victims do kinda deserve it.
Anakin Skywalker
Actor/film: Haydn Christiansen, Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith (2005)
Anti-social behaviour: Betraying – and slaughterin💮g – his Jedi mꦑates to curry favour with the Dark Side’s head honcho, Darth Sidious (Ian McDiarmid). Bad padawan.
Rebel Cause: He says it&♎rsquo;s becaus𓂃e he wants to protect wife Padme (Natalie Portman). But, deep down, it’s because Yoda passed him over for promotion.
Rebellious or Revolting? Even before the charred stum💙p of his body is encased in cybernetic body armour, he shows his vile nature by strangling preggers Padme.
Ferris Bueller
Actor/film: Matthew Broderick, Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986)
Anti-social behaviour: Truant maestro Ferris manages to cram modern art mockery, a parade day singalong and the demolition of a Ferrari into a ﷽single schoolday, without being caught.
Rebel Cause: A philosopher's awareness o🎉f the fleeting joys of life...although a shit-eating grin and unparall💮eled cockiness can't hurt.
Rebellious or Revolting? The most radical thing most of us do on a bunk-off is to snuggle under the duvet in front of Diagnosis: Murder . Compared to that, Ferris is Che Guevara.
Frank Abagnale, Jr
Actor/film: Leonardo DiCaprio, Catch Me If You Can (2002)
Anti-social behaviour: Flying passenger jets, treating patients, tryingꦬ court cases. Career stiff? Try 'unqualified teen conman.'
Rebel Cause: Traumatise𒆙d after seeing his parents split up over bad debts, Frank Jr is just living the dreams denied his pauper papa (Christopher Walken).
Rebellious or Revolting? Come off it. Given half a chance, we’𒆙d all be t🅰rying it on, right?
Alex DeLarge
Actor/film: Malcolm McDowell, A Clockwork Orange (1971)
Anti-social behaviour: High on drencrom and Ludwig van, Alex is up for lasཧhings of ultra-violence and a bit of the old in-out. Oh, and he doesn’t care too much for the Queen’s English, either.
Rebel Cause: Alex sees only dullness in the cruel attitudes of family and society alike. So he's made sure his cruelty is exciting .
Rebellious or revolting? On the one hand, there’s the cheeky wit, the funky threads, and the fact that the authorities are brutal gits. On🍸 the other hand, you really wouldn’t want a surprise visit from Alex.
Billy Loomis
The actor/film: Skeet Ulrich, Scream (1996)
Anti-social behaviour: Watch a few movies, make a few notes, and suddenly Billy and pꦆartner-in-crime Stu (Matthew Lillard) are Munch-masked serial killers taking 'trick or treat' too far.
Rebel Cause: It's scarier without a motive. Sadly, Billy ha꧋s a rather humdrum one: abandoment, leading to revenge. Less "Boo!" than boo-hoo.
Rebellious or Revolting? Crazy? They prefer the term 'psychotic.' Same difference when you're being garrottedꦰ. Somebody revoke their Blockbuster rental card, will ya?
Donnie Darko
Actor/film: Jake Gyllenhaal, Donnie Darko (2001)
Anti-social behaviour: Oh, the usual... Flooding his school, swinging an ax🌊e into a statue, burning down the home of a locꦬal paedophile, that sort of thing.
Rebel Cause: The long version – involving t🌞ime travel and falling jet engines – is complicated. But essentially, he’s acting out because a rabbit told him to.
Rebellious or Revolting? When most messed-up kids’ defiance takes the form of drinking cider in♈ the park, Donnie scores 10/10 on originality alone.
Jim Stark
The actor/film: James Dean, Rebel Without A Cause (1955)
Anti-social behaviour: The full gamut of 1950s teen scandal from the mildly outrageous (🍨drunk and disorderly♐) to the insanely dangerous (a clifftop 'chicken run' drive).
Rebel Cause: Surely he's Without ? Well...no. The cool title's just ♊a smokescreen for another by-rote dysfunctional movie fami🌠ly.
Rebellious or Revolting? Just a bit mixed up, is all. He'll soon grow out of it. For textbook fucked-up delinquency, check out Jim's besඣt mate, gun-toting headcase Plato (Sal Mineo).
Raymond Aibelli
Actor/film: Jeremy Davies, Spanking The Monkey (1994)
Anti-social behaviour: The monkey-spanking we can understand. The suicide attempts aren’t that unusual. But dont’cha think he’s getting too close to invalid Susan (Alberta Watson)? After all, she is his mother.
Rebel Cause: Mom's totally coming on to him with those endle𒊎ss requests to be washed. And, stuck in the middle of nowhere, there’s not m🌞uch else to do.
Rebellious or Revolting? If your first thought isn't "Eww🧸!" you might want to re🐎consider your life's priorities.
Louise Freeland
Actress/film: Evan Rachel Wood, Thirteen (2003)
Anti-social behaviour: Led astray by wild child Evie (Nikki Reed), 13-year-old Louise hurtles headlong into body piercings, sniffing aerosols and underage blowjobs. Sounds like the synopsis for one of those late night Hollyoaks specials, doesn't it?
Rebel Cause: Mom (Holly Hunter) is a ex-addict screw-up has suddenly gone all puritan on Louise's ass. So of course she's gonna play up.
Rebellious or Revolting? It's a phase. Give it a year and she'll be back into Hannah Montana and Nintendogs.
The Sherminator
Actor/film: Chris Owen, American Pie (1999)
Anti-social behaviour: Chuck Sꦚherman is a sexual revolutionary. As The Sherminator, he’s a one-man robot army from the future, here to make some sweet loving to hum🌠ankind.
Rebel Cause: It’s totally an act, dude. None of Chuck’s Sherm-sperm has ever got within 10𒉰0 yard🅷s of the laydeez.
Rebellious or Revolting? Remember: no likey, no lightey. Blimey, it's gone dark in here.
Antoine Doinel
Actor/film: Jean-Pierre Léaud, The 400 Blows (1959)
Anti-social behaviour: Quantity rather than qua🌃lity. Antoine indulges in mino♈r mischief (theft, graffiti) but gets caught so often he’s interned in a work camp for delinquents.
Rebel Cause: If you guessed 'bad parenting,' you'd be right. Yet again.ꦛ Antoine's a𒈔dulterous mother is so cold she actually told her son she wanted to abort him.
Rebellious or Revolting? Antoine grows up to be a bit of a dick in the sequels (we say franchise, they say français) but here we just want to reach out and give him a hugܫ.
John Bender
The actor/film: Judd Nelson, The Breakfast Club (1985)
Anti-social behaviour: Specifically, pulling a false fire alarm. But of all the kids in detention (brain, athlete, basket case, princess) it's Bender, "the criminal,"♑ who is the regular.
Rebel Cause: John cites an abusive father a♒s the root of his woes. Most flagrant act of abuse? Calling him Bender🍰.
Rebellious or Revolting? After a Saturday morning with this lot, Bender's gone froꦅm wild one to princess-lovin' softie. Detention: it's cheaper th♓an therapy.
