ode to a classic

there are some movies in your life, no matter what age you are, that will stick with you forever. one film in particular (and I hope most of you will agree) is a golden little gem known as "Say Anything..."

John Cusack. *sigh*. Although he is not exactly Brad Pitt, he gave me the little butterflies that every girl gets when she has a crush on a boy. And although his character's name was Lloyd, i'm pretty sure he stole (and will continue to rob) every female's heart

every.

single.

time.

best SCENE ever:

that classic, albeit desperate scene of Lloyd holding the radio over his head in front of Diane's house...silently BEGGING her to accept his love through the ballad of Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes"





best quote in the entire movie:


"What I really want to do with my life - what I want to do for a living - is I want to be with your daughter. I'm good at it."

  1. John Cusack is brilliant. Funny. And that movie was so quirky, that it just made all of us chicadees in the 80s, be we awkward, or be we not, feel.....warm and fuzzy!
