She is lovely

She is after all Mandy Moore, but didn't recognize her at first. She looks so different that my first impression of her reminds me of the leading actress in Secretary. She looks familiar anyway, in some other sense, not that prostitute kind of look as it appears. She is lovely as Rudy says for real, so sweet and adorable.

So, movies are really such a thing that creates illusions, or as they call it, dreams. This one builds up a romantic world based on truly broken life. Broken lives of broken people with broken heart or broken mind. So, again, movies are a cool, amazing, awful and deceptive thing, huh?

And I may come up with a comparatively amazing way of watching them. A little bit carried-away but definitely concentrated. There are two parallel worlds going on together only separated by the one who is watching. You are watching and also you're picturing something else, something that has nothing to do with the story on screen. Behind your eyes there's another screen in your mind, which is so clear but without any image somehow. It's sort of a reverse way of reading a book, while more like two people sharing one body is watching the same film. Very strange but interesting feelings.

There's another She, in me. Maybe I need to pull her out of my body. At least, not to get her so mixed up with me that's stuck in between, because, she is somewhere lovely, too. I like her as she is so naive and nice, never complains, never demands, likes to feel, likes to enjoy, so I'd really like her no more inside of me.

The story is quite predictable from the moment the boy runs into the girl, but I still like the story as well as how it goes. Maybe this is just because of the "she" in me. for the non-she part of me, I like the kinky guy's talk to Rudy when perhaps he comes to realize he may have feelings for Lucy -

Rudy Holt: You're a pussy
Henry: Guess so
Rudy Holt: Loser
Henry: Born that way.
Rudy Holt: She's a nice girl
Henry: She deserves better than him.
Rudy Holt: Now you're talking.
Henry: Better than me, too.
Rudy Holt: Yeah, but she doesn't know that yet.
Henry: I'm starting to like her.
Rudy Holt: Well, show her you at your best.
Henry: I can't. I don't have a best. My best is at best..depressing. --I

so damn like this piece.

btw, every voice in the file is so sexy..

- which i change my mind and put at the end not the beginning -
I'd try not to delete anything anymore no matter how crappy it is.

Dedication quotes

  • Henry: I've spent my whole life... wanting something... and doing my very best not to find it. Never even going near the places it might be... And suddenly, I've got the goddamn thing practically chained around my neck.

    Lucy: What are you talking about?

    Henry: You. You. You're the, you're the... You're, you're- you're the goddamn thing. Ahhh, uh. I mean... You're, you're. I can't describe you... uhh, I don't, I don't write that kind of shit, I write... You know, the people who write, who write the real books, the love books, and the poems, and even those stupid little fucking novels with the hunky assholes on the cover...

    Lucy: Stop...

    Henry: You know it? You know what I'm talking about? You know - you're like Princess shit! You know? Fairytales. You know what I'm saying? The million guys are after and you're blinded by your beauty kind of shit. Real big stuff. You know, that just - even, we got the dick that kidnaps you and sticks you in a cave and you're guarded by a five-headed dragon, you know and the tales of your plight are spread throughout the land and all the guys go and put on their shoes so they can see what's up and none of them have the balls to save her except for me. I would go through anything... for you. And still, there I was looking for a way not to see it. Anything. Money...

    Lucy: You stupid idiot.

    Henry: Yeah.

    Lucy: Yes.

    Henry: Yeah... big fat stupid idiot.

    Lucy: I hope you're better to the next one.

    Henry: No - wait...

    [he digs in his bag and decides not to give her the dedication to Simone, but grabs the pebble he had given her and then thrown back onto the beach and went back for later]

    Henry: It was easy to find... it's the only one like it.

    Lucy: You broke my heart, Henry. I don't think you can trust people. You always have to find something wrong. I'm just... I'm sorry. I'll miss you.

  • Henry: I can't.

    Lucy: Yes, you can.

    Henry: We have to work.

    Lucy: Right now?

    Henry: Lucy, come on please. It's going to get very complicated. Ahh, it's going to get so complicated.

    Lucy: Do you just genuinely dislike me, Henry?

    Henry: A week ago, I didn't give a rat's ass about nebulas and now I can't get enough of them. Ok?

    Lucy: Nebulae.

    Henry: What?

    Lucy: It's nebulae... not nebulas.

    Henry: Ok, fine. I don't care about nebulas. You know accuse me of whatever you want, I'm probably guilty of it... contributing to global warming, and killing a squirrel once, and using the word retarded, and occasionally misinterpreted bigotry, but don't, don't... don't don't don't don't don't accuse me of not liking you. Ok?

    Lucy: I understand.
