Genres & Description

Comedy Drama

7.4 / 10

Seventh-grade is no fun. Especially for Dawn Weiner when everyone at school calls you 'Dog-Face' or 'Wiener-Dog.' Not to mention if your older brother is 'King of the Nerds' and your younger sister is a cutesy ballerina who gets you in trouble but is your parents' favorite. And that's just the beginning--her life seems to be falling apart when she faces rejection from the older guy in her brother's band that she has a crush on, her parents want to tear down her 'Special People's Club' clubhouse, and her sister is abducted....

Such a downer that the movie Palindrome begins with Dawn’s funeral. She committed suicide. - @Thursday, September 20, 2018 5:15 PM

I saw him put his hands around her..I was there. This is cheating. I saw him go on top of her and say that im his snob. I know she closed the door...her mom got her perfume.... he diddled her...literally remember and he did homework with her. she made fun of me all the time. she cried theres a video on youtube stating that just if they wanted it doesnt mean they still do. look it up. i dont like that they put people inside others bodies. its so fucking gross. I will not accept this. and what else do they do? hang out with eachother while im fucking someone else. man i hate this person. i would just sleep with anyone and forget their UGLY FACE. - @Thursday, January 4, 2018 6:17 PM

@jasonbof75 Well, it's not in the film at all that she dies; the epilogue of the film is that she goes to college, gains overweight and kills herself. Hopefully this helps :) - @Tuesday, January 25, 2011 4:41 PM
