Mine's quite a sad case

When I was 11 I wanted to be Andy from Pretty in Pink when I grew up. But that's a wanna-be thing and not a what I already am thing.


I've never really thought OMG! that's me! for any character.

I haven't! I always find characters that are like some of the people in my life, but I've never seen a character that made me think of myself

Now, if we were talking about tv, I get told that I'm like Melissa from Real World New Orleans all.the.time. I know that she isn't a character, but you know what I mean. I see it too, though. She and I have similar personalities.

Hmm... An interesting question. I identify with parts of:








Bob Hughes, from Drugstore Cowboy. In that, through sheer luck, he manages to come out of his youthful indiscretions unscathed and decides to change his life.





David Dobel, from Anything Else. In that he tries to impart his hard-won wisdom to a younger person.





Alice Tate, from Alice. In that she goes through therapy that allows her to have a better understanding of herself and the true nature of happiness.





The Dude, from The Big Lebowski: the Zen.

if you know the character, you know me...(many friends have signed off on this)


and most of the roles prince plays, but even outside of his movies some of thought/beliefs make so much "perfect" sense to me it scares me...

While you can be anyone you want, even Cruella

I think I'm kind of a combo of a few people

Marianne Dashwood (Kate Winslet) in "Sense & Sensibility"

Mame (Rosalind Russell) in "Auntie Mame"

Katie Jordan (Michelle Pfeiffer) in "The Story of Us"

Anais Nin (Maria Madeiros) in "Henry & June"

Ann Millaney (Andie McDowell) in "sex, lies, and videotape"

I've calmed down TREMENDOUSLY over the last 15 years. I remember in my 20's I went through phase where I could only relate to leads in movies like "Siesta" (starring Ellen Barkin), and "The Last Seduction" (w/ Linda Fiorentino)

. I'm so glad THAT era of my youth is over

I actually identify with both Barry AND Rob, depending on my mood. Barry ESPECIALLY when I was younger.

OMG!!!!! Totally!!!

SCNDLS said:

I probably do, but not because I relate to George Bailey.

I think lots of people feel that they have obligations that stop them from living the life of their dreams... and in the end George is grateful, so very very grateful, for all that he has.

I usually find myself falling hard for "Robs"

Ever awkward; slightly pretentious; capable of extraordinary things, but dogged by lack of focus and the propensity to land in the most absurd circumstances.

...And hair that is catastrophic when grown out.



Yep. I've long teetered on the edge of utter Barton Fink-dom.
