Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008)

So I discovered something bad about my challenge. I stopped watching as many movies. Every time I went to watch something I thought "Oh man. I'm going to have to write about this." I should have seen this coming, but I didn't. Never mind, I have solved the problem, with a friendly reminder to myself that its meant to be fun. So prepare yourself for a mega catch up with my new 'Pieces of Awesome' style.


A modern Fairytale. Boy meets Girl over a New York City canvas and funky beats (did I just say funky beats? Oh glory). Starring Michael Cera and Kat Dennings, who took me on a delightful 24 hour journey of joy and wonder.


Pieces of Awesome:


The leads Nick (Michael Cera) and Norah (Kat Dennings). Wit and sarcasm = Joy.


Caroline played my Ari Gaynor. I'd buy stocks in Gaynor if I could. She's going to be huge. You can catch a glimpse of her in Whip It (2009) as well. Oh and she taught me a wise thing in this movie. Never share chewing gum. EVER.


Nick's Yugo (It's a car. Yeah, I'd never heard of it either) is a character in its self. The embodiment of Nick's character.

For those that not mind a teeny tiny spoiler, here's my favourite moment featuring the adorable Caroline.


In conclusion: Love love loved it. My kinda movie. Had some slow points and I can see why it didn't do well on a large scale but it screams Cult Flick. See it. Live it. Love it.
