    I loved this movie precisely because of Ione's exquisite beauty and also because of the sweetness and intelligence of her Diane Court character. It is amazing to me that Ione is still so GORGEOUS in her 50s. It would be great if Cameron Crowe did a sequel to Say Anything with a good script and with her and John Cusack in their roles as that beautiful couple.

      the thing that people saying this bs, even in jest, nowadays don't get, is that he is not standing right outside her window in the scene, but at the nearby park, in long-earshot. she doesn't come to the window or go down there, there's no dialogue. it is more a suggestion, a reminder from him. stop making it something that it isn't!..

  • @cesarjom
    @cesarjom Před 3 lety +13

    Why did the boom box scene became so iconic? Credit Peter Gabriel and his amazing "In your eyes" song, pretty sure any other song would not have worked the magic in that scene.

    • @ILJ68
      @ILJ68 Před 3 lety +5

      Did you know the scene wasn’t recorded with that song, it was with a song by fishbone. In Your Eyes was dubbed in later. Also, the ending song was supposed to be the Smithereens A Girl Like You, but Cameron thought it gave too much of the film away so nixed it. They put it on their album and it is a smash hit

    • @deathlarsen7502

    This movie has a lot of meaning to me. When I was in high school in the mid 90s I loved this movie and it reminds me of a girl I had a crush on but we were total opposites and I knew she wouldn’t like me. I never ended up dating her but we are still friends to this day. Fast forward to present time and Ione in this movie looks so much like my most recent crush. We had such a great bond like Lloyd and Diane in the movie. Then I get to the scene wheee she gives him the pen and turns her back to him and that’s where I am with things now. She won’t tell me why she hates me now. Love the movie but it surely does bring back memories of past and present. I feel like a real life Lloyd Dobler looking for his Diane Court..

    I saw this movie with a young woman with whom i had just started dating. We were the same age as these characters and I drove a Chevy Nova at the time. She was out of my league as well but I didn't treat it that way. When you are attracted to someone enough - just go for it. This was to this day and i have loved deeply since then, one of the best dates of my life so for sure this movie means something special to me
