I'm An Expat, And This Is What I Show Foreigners Who Want To Know What Life In
America Is Like
If youve ever felt alienated by the world around you, Ghost World will offer
laughter, tears, and reassurance that you are definitely not alone. Adapted
by Daniel Clowes and Crumb director Terry Zwigoff from Clowess
acclaimed graphic novel, the movie spends summer vacation with high
school graduates Enid (Thora Birch) and Rebecca (Scarlet Johansson).
They inflict little tortures on the denizens of urban sprawl, wielding scathing
irony as a defense against a ghost world full of pop-cultural lemmings and
uncertain futures. But when Enid picks a 40-ish vintage-record collector
(Steve Buscemi) as the target of her latest cruel prank, she finds herself
unexpectedly attracted to him (hes the opposite of everything I completely
hate) and is forced to confront her own crushing loneliness. This

combination of deadpan sarcasm and deeply compassionate humanity
makes Ghost World a rare and delicate comedy, with an ambiguous
ending that suggests tragedy or hope, depending on your own point of
view. --Jeff Shannon
Personal Review: Ghost World (Dol) [VHS] starring Thora Birch;

Well I had heard that this was a good movie. I saw it for 4.99 and decided
to get it. During the first 10 minutes I was almost sure I wouldn't like it. It
seemed like your average movie made now a days. After a while though I
got drawn in to the story. It is about two girls who are best friends. It is the
day of their high school graduation. They are a lot alike. They are also
planning on moving into a place together. So everything is fine and good.
That is until some things happen that make them realize that they are both
different people. Some of the things are one of the girls can not keep a
job. So she has no money to pay rent. Also, the same girl starts talking to
this guy she meets. She sees him selling records and finds out he is a
neat guy. Things happen with him and her while her friends has a job and
looks for a place to live. There is a lot more to the movie. But I'm not one
to give away the story. So, buy it. You can find it so inexpensive. I
usually sell movies when I am finished watching them. This one though
was so good, it has found a place in my collection.
Also, the soundtrack is really good. It has some older blues stuff. So
those who pay attention to that sort of thing, or music lovers. Will enjoy it
for that reason as well.
