Movie Review: Beautiful Girls
"You go out and buy a colored diamond for a girl you're not even seeing? Man, you've been eatin' retard sandwiches again."
This is a classic movie, especially for a hick from upstate New York like myself. Beautiful Girls is a gritty, emotional comedy that really makes you think. It's tough to return home and see a place you loved as a really depressing caricature of itself, but it is often the case after years away.
Beautiful Girls reminds me of garage parties in Johnstown, NY at 21 years old: it's great to see everyone, but it's hard to think about how much things have changed.
Four stars.
