SYNOPSIS: In a charming, critically acclaimed tale of first love, Lloyd (John Cusack), an eternal optimist, seeks to capture the heart of Diane (Ione Skye), an unattainable high-school beauty and straight-A student. It surprises just about everyone when she returns the sentiment. But Diane's overly possessive, divorced father (John Mahoney) doesn't approve and it will take more than the power of love to conquer all.

BLURBS:

"It has the authentic glow and wry humor of a Scott Fitzgerald story." - Richard Freeman, Newark Star-Ledger

"An unforgettable romance about a modern-day knight in shining trenchcoat who will do anything to win the girl of his dreams." - Betsy Bozdech, Reel.com

"'Say Anything' is one of those rare movies that has something to teach us about life. It doesn’t have a 'lesson' or a 'message,' but it observes its moral choices so carefully that it helps us see our own. That such intelligence could be contained in a movie that is simultaneously so funny and so entertaining is some kind of a miracle." - Roger Ebert
