Say Anything (1989)
From Amazon:
Seven years after he earned his first screen credit as the writer of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, former Rolling Stone writer Cameron Crowe made his directorial debut with this acclaimed romantic comedy starring John Cusack and Ione Skye as unlikely lovers on the cusp of adulthood. The casting is perfect, and Crowe's rookie direction is appropriately unobtrusive, no doubt influenced by his actor-loving, Oscar®-winning mentor, James L. Brooks. But the real strength of Crowe's work is his exceptional writing, his timely grasp of contemporary rhythms and language (he's frequently called "the voice of a generation"), and the...

D.C. (Amy Brooks): Lloyd, why do you have to be like this?
Lloyd Dobler (John Cusack): 'Cause I'm a guy. I have pride.
Corey Flood (Ione Skye): You're not a guy.

It belongs in this category: Chick Flick, because the character of Lloyd Dobler (John Cusack) is quite simply the sweetest man in the history of cinema. He is confused, honest and in love and you fall in love with him every time. Diane Court (Ione Skye) is just what he needs and vice versa, even if it takes her forever...
