Say Anything...

KinsNov 16, 2022

I believe it is a parent's duty to expose their children to all the fine arts, including classic movies. This movie is one that you should share with your kids. It is a very realistic yet romantic view of young love and following your heart. My daughter Meaghan loved this movie. She wants to meet her "Loyd". She has also become a fan of Peter Gabriel and any movie by Cameron Crowe. Watching these kinds of movies with my kids has given me some magical memories that I will cherish as they head off to college and the rest of their lives. And, just so you don't think I am a softy, I have recommended "The Bad Seed", "Citizen Kane" and "On The Waterfront" among fine films for my kids to watch.

Most people I know loved Say anything and I am among the many who thought this was a very good touching, funny movie for teens and young people. It is a bit more wholesome then a lot of what's out there in this genre and although it doesn't rank among my favorite teen movie it definitely earned it's praise. There are some terrific one liners in Say Anything and the male/female relationship is depicted in a touching and often very accurate-surprisingly accurate way. Plus there are moments of just pure hilarity and unforgettable lines, one of them being what I headed my Quote(my buddy and I still throw this line around to this day.) John Cussack stars here and was very good, it was my introduction to him. I'd recommend this movie to anyone who just wants to see a nice fresh teen movie with both touching and hilarious moments. My vote is 8 out of 10.

That was one incredible line: "I gave her my heart and she gives me a pen." You could just feel the pain. I caught this tonight and was really surprised. Cusack was magnificent. Maybe I need to watch more of his movies to get some tips. Ione Skye was so much more that "Girls in Prison." She really played a great part and was so sweet. She has that Drew Barrymore smile. I really like Lili Taylor, too. She really played a great part. And, when he went to the guys, I swear I recognized one of them, but I can't place him. All in all, I have to agree that this was one good movie.

One of the rare 80's teen flicks that doesn't portray all teens as sex-crazed dimwits and all adults as lobotomized morons. An insightful, romantic comedy that only Cameron Crowe could give us.

Cameron Crowe succeeds in creating a vary likeable character dealing with love from afar. Lloyd Dobler, played by John Cusak, is very popular, but without major ambition. He is smitten with the smartest girl in school, played by Ione Skye. Dobler's current main goal in life is to get a date with the object of his obsession. If you liked the movie PRETTY IN PINK, you will really enjoy this movie. Two people from different walks of life discover each other. Cusak is flawless in his role. Miss Skye is more than just a pretty face. John Mahoney plays the pampering father. Crowe has a talented flair with the agonizing emotions that are part of approaching adulthood.

Very few films have even tried to be as smart and honest as Say Anything. The film, which is more then 10 years old, still remains to be one of the strongest pieces of romantic cinema. Not only do John Cusack and Ione Skye have perfect chemistry; not only is John Mahoney's character one of the most complicated father figures in the history of film; not only is the screen play delightfully honest; but everything just seems to fit right in this movie. A true treasure
