Why are there no posts for this awesome movie?


I totally loved this movie and was just wondering why there haven't been any posts yet? It was such a great movie, I thought there would be s lot of posts for it already, but I guess I was wrong about that. My question: who was your favorite character in the movie? Mine was Squirrel, just because he was so adorable as the guy no girl found attractive and Ethan Embry played him so perfectly.

Yeah I cant believe there arent more posts eaither. My favorite character is squirrel too, and Keller. I live in Texas too. But I deffinetley can't relate to the small town. But I think it would be pretty cool to live in a town with only 81 people. But then again it would kind of suck cause then there would hardley be any boy-friend oppritunites.

I live in Texas as well and I lived in a small town as a young girl. Nowhere near as small as Dancer, but the town I lived in only had about 500 people, so it was still pretty tiny!

It's had a population EXPLOSION in the past decade though and now boasts a population of almost 5,000.

I love this movie too. I love its simplicity and beauty. My favorite character is Keller.

Early one evening I arose from the floor still smelling of death and breakfast.

I agree this movie should be more appreciated. I am from a small town in North Texas and this movie hits home! I appreciate its simplicity, and that it portrays the characters problems without making the characters sound like the stupidest people on the planet - they are simple characters who are content with the lives they lead.

My favorite characters are Keller and John! I wish all 4 of the main actors: Breckin Meyer, Eddie Mills, Ethan Embry, and Peter Facinelli would make more movies. They are all very talented and I would love to see more projects from them all.
