#thumbsucker 2005

[keanuquotes]

Lou Taylor Pucci gets a big thumbs up for his moving portrayal of a morose teen loser (with an embarrassing oral fixation) who turns his life around. The smart and quirky comedy-drama is the big-screen debut for writer-director Mike Mills, who adapted the novel by Walter Kirn. Keanu Reeves is spacey fun as a New Age-y dentist with some unusual ideas on how to treat the teen's problems. Tilda Swinton, Vincent D'Onofrio, Vince Vaughn, Benjamin Bratt, Kelli Garner.

“I guess I stopped trying to be anything. I accepted myself and all my human disorder.”

“That's cause we all wanna be problemless. To fix ourselves. We look for some magic solution to make us all better, but none of us really know what we're doing. And why is that so bad? That's all we humans can do. Guess. Try. Hope. But, Justin, just pray you don't fool yourself into thinking you've got the answer. Because that's bullshit. The trick is living without an answer. I think.”
