Lloyd Dobler

I came across this wonderful article on the character Lloyd Dobler played by John Cusack in the film 'Say Anything..'. It is mainly about how women are in love with this character and how they are looking for this type of man to have in their lives. The guy in high school that no woman wanted but ultimately now the kind of man they want to marry. I would probably say that Say Anything is my most favorite romantic comedy. I saw the film at a very early age and thought Cusacks character was really cool. I've strived to be just that, a type of Lloyd Dobler. The films soundtrack is also very cool with 2 of my most favorite mellow and romantic songs: Peter Gabriel- In your eyes and The Repalcements- Within Your Reach. If this is the type of man women are looking for then at least I'm sitting pretty. And to the women who are looking for this type of man, they are out there. Although I would say they are few. Sometimes they are hard to find but you just have to look in the right places.

"She's gone. She gave me a pen. I gave her my heart, she gave me a pen." Lloyd Dobler.
