i fucking hated the movie, probly because i have been such a huge daniel clowes (and adrian tomine) fan for such a long time. their comics are fucking great, and the movie just didn't live up to that, it also made Enid kinda out to be this irretating whore, which she definately was not!
the sonic youth quote is on the first page, it says
enid - why do you have this? (holds up sassy magazine)
Rebecca - what?
Enid - i hate this fucking magazine!, these stupid girls think they're so hip, but they're just a bunch of trendy stuck-up prep-school bitches who think they're "cutting edge" because they know who "sonic youth" is!
after reading that on the first page i knew i'd love the rest of it. and i did.
also check out Adrian Tomine, Daniel Clowes'es stuff can get a bit drugged out like he wrote it whilst on acid, Adrian Tomine's stuff is alot more realistic and true to life.
