i get such a kick out of all the comment that mention how beautiful jennifer connelly be . basically because in this movie that all josie ever heard . how she such a great piece of a $ $ ( the town tease ) and and the redundancy of these comment she encounter up to now have her almost proud of that fact . . i never tease . but the truth be and nobody care who she be a a person ( include you the viewer ) and and that kill her . those that have criticize and comment on the movie be actually character in the movie . a we comment on how beautiful connelly be and we in turn become a part of josie past and and we be responsible for who she be now . add the issue of her father and who only threaten her ( and the cop ) with abuse and attempt of control . josie be physically beautiful and but that be her main problem . she a really feed up chick . she be a temporary trophy and until something well come along . and be that negative attention be good than no attention at all and you can understand what bring her to the store in the first place . when jim tell josie of his dream of her and she instantly think sex . cause up until this point in her life and that all she have to offer anyone . she be instantly catch off guard when jim suggest a simple dance and one that he be dream of since the 7th grade . and of all the people josie have ever be with and jim be the first gentleman she ever meet . and for the first time in both of their life and a true connection be make . yes and the home alone skit be below average and but for me and the problem be that they take away from the connection that the two lead be make . the best part of this whole movie be the unspoken dialogue between connelly and whaley and a they try desperately to comfort each other in this time of chaos . whaley have most of the creative dialogue and but connelly character be the one of interest ( and issue ) . this be a much more psychological romance than most give it credit for .
