SAY EVERYTHING

Today's NYTimes Best 1176 Film was Cameron Crowe's

Say Anything (1989)

This is one of my favorite films.

Why is it so great?

John Cusack (along with his sister Joan). The story. The light and persistent hand of Cameron Crowe. Simplicity and honesty wins.

Most of all it is Lloyd Dobler. He is one of the most attractive characters I have ever seen.

He is a loser who is a winner.

What else?

It is so good that Ebert wrote a second review/appreciation.

This is a high 5 out of Netflix5. Surely and absolutely.
