I just watched Say Anything (the first of several movies in my queue that I’d label “classic teen movies I’ve never seen”). I really liked it, but it made me end up feeling depressed, even though it ends up happy (if I just ruined the ending for you... you should have watched it sixteen years ago). It’s really because it made me think about how that 18-20 part of your life is so short and confusing and once it’s gone it’s gone. And throughout a lot of the movie I was thinking about the lyrics to the Good Charlotte song “Say Anything,” a title which may or may not have been inspired by the movie, but the lyrics could have so easily been the voice of John Cusak’s character in the movie. Anyway I guess I’m done with my comments on the movie. I’m not sure if anyone else enjoys reading these types of posts...
Please don’t walk away,
I know you wanna stay
If you just give me a sign
Say anything, say anything
