LIFE and All the Real Girls

Mar 14, 2008 03:40

It's been a while...in the past couple of months I've gone to and returned from Italy, gotten a new (temporary, hopefully) job, cut and dyed my hair, and have basically just been trying to plan my escape from this town. The boyfriend has a job interview this weekend in San Francisco, and if that all works out (fingers crossed), I may be moving to Cali in the not-so-distant future. I'm not able to completely grasp what exactly that would entail right now, so I'm just going to have a positive outlook on things and hope everything works out for the best.

Also, I watched the movie All the Real Girls last night and just had to post about it. It's one of those movies that just sticks with you after you watch it. It's a story about love. It's true to life, it's true to love, it's true to heartbreak...it's just a real story, and it means a lot to me because of that.







ALL THE REAL GIRLS








































Noel: Why haven't you ever kissed me?
Paul: I'm scared. Scared that when- if- when Tip asks me if I ever kissed you I'll have to say yep.




Noel: I had a dream that you grew a garden on a trampoline, and I was so happy that I invented peanut butter











"Hey, I wanna dance. But I don't want you to watch."









Screencaps really can't do this scene justice.




Paul: Get a girl to do it. I'm not doin' it.
Elvira: But you have such a funny face!
Paul: Excuse me?? Don't touch me with that clown costume.

Noel: Did you...wanna get beat up by a pillow?





Noel: I still have my pillow...
Paul: I realize this...







Paul: I just want to make sure that a million years from now I can still see you up close and we'll still have amazing things to say....I'm gonna go now.

Paul: You know how ducks fly home in a V? Like a V-shape? And they go home? I was walking my dog and there's a big V above me and right when they flew above me, I saw them crash into a big house. The whole V. And then they hit the ground and they just kind curled up. You ever fucking see that? You ever see a mistake in nature? You ever see an animal make a mistake?







Paul: See that's where you don't know everything about me. I mean, you know a lot...and that's yours, you can keep it. I'm just a guy who thought he was finally on the right track makin' the right moves.

I don't want to give up too much of the plot, but I just wanted to highly recommend this movie. It's a beautiful piece of film full of poignancy and truth. I've been a fan of Zooey Deschanel for a while now, but Paul Schneider is the one that really made the movie what it is. He has a naturalness about him that makes his humor and charm very appealing.

That's all for now...hope everyone has a great weekend!

real life, movies
