This movie is unlike any i've watched before -- I grew up being told by my family that love wasn't in the cards for me because I was too ugly, which is exactly what happens in this film.... so it was a little sad to watch something that honest, that i never talk about, right in front of my eyes, as if other people have had the same problem (which of course they have). I loved this movie. Many of my friends openly admitted they don't relate to the main character, so the movie to them seemed dramatic and cliche. But to me? I've never seen a better depiction of my life on screen. I needed this. Badly. Take a chance and go see it. You might learn something.
