And the lead was excellent, though played waaay older than 16, nevertheless, very good.

I hated all the wisecracking - it just felt depressing and superficial to me!

I've still not seen it - she is amazing though, Hard Candy was excellent

I loved it too. I love the soundtrack. Best film I have seen in ages.

I actually didn't look to see if there was a soundtrack, but may have to pick it up soon.

Do you ever go through phases where no new music is any good, then all of a sudden you want to listen to tons of new music...?

Juno was great! But lots of people said she reminded them of me !
The sound track was amaaaaaaaaazing! Dont you think that band Noah and the Whales remind you of the soundtrack? ( went to see them in edinburgh because they shared ds name lol)
Hard Candy was great to! Scary though, i was studying photography when i saw it.

yes, from the Velvet Underground. Remember it from teenage days - it was out some time mid-70s. Not heard for decades, then POW! there it is in this wonderful film.

Although I originally thought it said "i'd want you to SHAVE me" which I guess doesn't make sense

I guess so though I did think the VU were more of a rock/NY punk band of the time. But I've been wrong before. Just the once.

quick question. What do you do when a woman appears to changge her mind for no apparent reason and isn't up for explaining it really. Does one 1. badger her, or 2. play it cool. It's vexing me.
Answers please?
