spoiler contain herein there be a lot of thing i like about this movie represent the humour and the character and but it be basically thora birch that carry it the character of enid be terrific and remind me a lot of daria ( who i also like ) . the movie itself remind me of the graduate and with the main point be the search by the main character for a direction in life and and the final scene be a bus ride out of town . the interest be hold by wonder what enid would actually do and a she do not seem to like any of her option . it fell down in a number of way though represent i really dislike the 2 dimensional way in which the character of enid father be treat it seem like a really cynical way of rule out the family option . the end be a complete cop out her simply skip town on a bus be not a choice . even the people who like the movie do not like the end and and have come up with various mystical or suicidal interpretation to excuse it . the main problem be that there be a perfectly obvious solution to enid problem and which be that she should go to college . she would have another few year to grow up and develop proper social skill . this be what college be for . at least in the graduate dustin hoffman be a college graduate and so his struggle be more ground in adult sensitivity . anyway and i think i be make this sound bad than it be . i do really like it for the most part and but felt that it lose it way a little and and end badly . positive .
