Ghost World

Ghost World is a weird movie. In it, two teens on the brink of adulthood go their separate ways. They are assholes. They are mean to everyone and they like being mean. They are played by Scarlett Johansson and Thora Birch. It wouldn't be correct to call theme indie, because they probably hate indie people, but they are both very unique people. Ghost World isn't very well known, but I am sure of its greatness. It is witty, odd, and thought provoking (as a movie should be). There is a specific scene in the film, where the Thora Birch character sees a man waiting at a bus stop where the bus stopped going by. It has been years since the bus stopped there but the man stands there every day regardless. One day, he is gone into a bus that stops there. This is a beautiful scene. The whole film is a metaphor for the breaking away from high school into life. It's about the expectations, the reality, the bad, the good. It's about breaking away for laziness. Ghost World is one the the best films of the last decade.
