I'm thinking more Breck Girl than emo. I'll wait for the DVD rental.

Is that pic of the Welles guy, or the high-school kid?

Jesus Christ, Zack Efron is better groomed than I am.

But never fear, I believe this is a still from the movie.

Tell me this is a made for tv movie.
@5, It's not that he isn't well groomed, it's that he looks way too modern, like a contemporary Ken doll.

That was one of the most pretentious, obnoxious books I have ever read. I cannot imagine the movie could be any easier to watch.

I really liked the book, though I picked it off the discount rack. My problems with the movie: the book guy is no pretty-boy, damnit. During the opening shot I kept praying the camera would not settle on the young-Christopher-Reeve lookalike. And the aging Girl Scout Claire Danes does not fit the worldly-wise seductress who sleeps with powerful men to get ahead. She's more a spokeswoman for real California cheese.
