I went and saw this movie the weekend before 9-11 happened. After a week of doom and gloom, I went to see it again the following weekend. Still love it.
This movie rocks and ROLLS! If everyone in the world watched this one movie even just once a week, I really believe they would see the futility of their destructive actions and just get MELLOW about it all.
Indeed! That actor played a very tough character in the mid 70's classic "Hard Times" opposite Charles Bronson & James Coburn. His looks really changed from then to when he made this film...but there is a about a 25 yr time difference, so I suppose it's understandable.
If this film was made 10 years earlier, the perfect person to play Enid would have been, ahem, Janeane Garofalo. Can you see it? Nothing against Thora's portrayal, but Janeane's naturally wicked intelligence would have been sublime!
Rebecca is supposed to be a boring character. She was boring in the comics too. One of the main points of Ghost World, in both the movie and the comic, was how Rebecca ended up conforming and starting a "normal" or "average" life while Enid stayed herself was basically left behind.
Ok, I'm going to say something totally juvenile and shallow amidst all the probing, profound comments here- Scarlett Johannsen is TOTALLY HOT in this movie, despite the fact that she is about 16 here.
This is a good film, but somewhat pretentious. In a good way nevertheless; I believe that the pretentiousness in the film was needed in order to convey the message that it gives your typical bourgeois audience. Nicely done for an American film that was made in 2001.
I always thought it was weird that he typed "DOUGLAS", and we also get a glimpse of the name "DOUG" on the back of the mullet guy's shirt at the convenience store.
I thought this film would be another boring crap from Hollywood but Thora Birch made it look much better. She is amazing actress and unquestioning "master of weird roles". Steve Buscemi and Scarlett Johansson were great as well. Brad Renfro should have had much more screen time.
maxine friggin SCARES ME first time I saw this movie i was like.... wtf.... this woman is scary as hell. but none the less, she adds to funnyness of the movie
This shows us how great of an actor Buscemi is. Look at this Seymour guy, and then remember him as the no-tip Mr. Pink saying "we have to act like f...ing professionals!!"
Now, re: the girls, I don't see why people go crazy for Scarlett. I loved her in Lost in Translation but that's about it. I got a HUGE crush on Thora Birch after watching this one. "Don't you like me, Seymour?"
I have such a mask! Being a huge Ghost World-fan for years, I had been looking, and not too long ago, I finally fould it! I love that mask. Almost as much as I love Ghost World.
This is one of my favourite films ever, used to read the comic all the time and was so happy it came out, I think I am Enid, but then again don't we all?
Is it just me, or did anyone else think that Thora Birch was way hotter than Scarlett Johansson in this movie? Not that Johansson wasn't hot too, don't get me wrong.
you'll find them either at a coffee shop, library, bookstore, or artschool... however.. some may appear to be like enid... some are more pretensious then others and too into themselves which can be annoying. but some are the real deal.
Umm, am I really the only one with this particular fetish: the Catwoman mask on Thora actually makes her EVEN HOTTER than usual (which is no small feat)... Should I get help?
I never understood why companies where taking clips down from youtube. I've never seen this movie before, and not that I've seen a clip from it, I'll actually go watch it. thanks for posting, and whoever made the movie should thank you too
