Coolness factor

"Jake Gyllenhaal is a revelation in the title role. He manages to make Donnie this amazing amalgam of cool, ennui, geekiness and scariness that’s unexpected, but works to a tee. Jena Malone as Gretchen, the one person who really understands Donnie, is in a sense his female doppelganger, but without his more extreme traits".

"Brendan's is a cynical universe, in which everyone protects their own, but also one in which people are concerned with more than who's dating who and who's on "American Idol." Everyone is cool, and no one is cool. It's the vision of what every high school student wishes to be". Source: www.combustiblecelluloid.com"Superbad" (2007)/Michael Cera
"I think it's great how Evan is portrayed as the good guy and remains the good guy. He tries to be cool but it doesn't suit him. He doesn't even look cool when he acts cool. It's the awkwardness he goes through that wins the audiences attention because they all can relate to him". Source: www.la2day.com"Almost Famous" (2000) /Patrick Fugit
"They make you feel cool. And hey. I met you. You are not cool".

Playfulness loving scenes

Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway as Jack Twist and Lureen in "Brokeback Mountain" (2005):"If love is a train, I think I'll ride me a slow one. I want to ride right through the night making every stop." -Singer-songwriter Michelle Shocked.

Joseph Gordon Levitt and Nora Zehetner as Brendan and Laura in "Brick" (2005):

"When we start out on the loving and sexual trail, it is so full of emotion that it is almost impossible to contain the feelings of lust, the smile that dances at the corners of the lips, the heart bursting with anticipation every time the phone rings. We ride the waves of ‘being in love’ for all it’s worth. Surfing the white frothy sea of heightened emotions, wiping our salty, sweaty palms, the noise of our pumping heart so loud we are sure everyone can hear it. We know we are alive.

Soaring above day to day challenges flying through minor problems that present themselves, we are totally enveloped in the physical sensation of being in love".

Michael Cera and Martha MacIsaac as Evan and Becca in "Superbad" (2007):
"Moreover, Gergen found that playful aggression was positively associated with alcohol use and going steady in young people.

Baxter (1992) found intimate play in both same-sex and other-sex relations in college students. [...] She also found that playfulness in general positively correlated with relationship closeness". Source: findarticles.com

Joseph Gordon Levitt and Isla Fisher as Chris and Luvlee in "The Lookout" (2007):

"[...] she's a safe cracker
She kissed me first and then broke in

We slip and slide on the stay-together landmine
I make my mind up to never be myself
And every time I make a rhyme
I live my life for someone else

She's in the kitchen with bitter diamond drunks
(She's in the way)
I'm on the sofa (I'm in the way)
Hoping she leaves that punk cause

I'm the boy with the poetry power
I'm the boy, smells like flowers
And every time I make a rhyme
I live my life like I wasn't invited [...]"

"Actress Kirsten Dunst has found love in rehab, according to InTouch magazine.

The 25-year-old Spider-Man star reportedly met the mystery man at the Cirque Lodge rehabilitation centre in Sundance, Utah.

An insider told the magazine: "The staff has asked the two to separate more than enough. She sits on his lap while smoking cigarettes."

Dunst's new boyfriend has asked his mum to send flowers to Kirsten at the clinic on his behalf.

Dunst was reportedly prompted to go into rehab after the death of Heath Ledger.

Eva Mendes and Lindsay Lohan have also undergone treatment programmes at the Utah clinic".

Juno "Anyone else" Video

"Anyone else but you" had always been a personal favourite from Kimya Dawson's band The Moldy Peaches, and I like how actors Ellen Page and Michael Cera played it in the acoustic final scene in "Juno", one of the best covers I've heard.

Wired for sadness

"It's the prefrontal cortex that brings those emotions into play and guides us in our behavior. If we didn't have a sense of what would be wonderful or awful in the future, we would behave very haphazardly." -Ned Kalin, director of the University of Wisconsin's Health-Emotions Research Institute in Madison."Emotion is the glue that holds a personality together".
