I just say High Fidelity last night and of course Walking on Sunshine at an
exceedingly loud volume is a feature of that movie...
I am proud that the John Cusack character's second girlfriend (#2 on his list)
went to, according to the movie, my high school! The scenes of them outside
the high schiool were filmed at Lane Tech, my alma mater! It was a rush to see
the view of Lane from exactly the same door that I used to wait for the bell to
ring, too. Of course, then it was still all male and we weren't allowed on the
lawn... but then Cusack grew up in Chicago area and I don't think he went to
Lane but someone on the movie crew must have to get the shot of that school
from the angle.
Question: the two kids (Jason and Vince?) steal the music from the record
store, Cusack chases them, and then mocks what they steal by saying what,
exactly? I couldn't catch the line; it was something like, and this is a loose
paraphrase,"what are you doing, mainlining Joni Mitchell now?" What was the
line from the movie and what did it mean? Anyone know?
(I am sure this was covered before but I forget...)
