We can be heroes, just for one day

The iconic scene from The Perks of Being Wallflower when Charlie turns to stare in awe at Sam’s confidence, beauty and overall sense of blissfulness. And that’s when he says the memorable line “I feel infinite.”

The scene gives me chills every time I watch it. Bowie’s song couldn’t have been more perfect. The lyric “Oh we can be heroes, just for one day” really spoke to me in conjunction with that scene.

Sure, I’d heard the song many many times before, but I never really listened to it until then.
