Sorry, I had to say it because it bothered me so much during the film. Couldn't they have found a better looking guy for the lead? He is way, way out of Evan Rachel Wood's league. Like way out.
sharewell i think he's gorgeous
and a complete doppleganger for Paul.
That's actually one of the things that bothered me about the film. The central romance didn't feel like a deep and romantic connection, it felt like he was just going after the girl was out of his league, just because she was out of his league.
Why make a film about a guy who's just after a girlfriend upgrade?
Young countercultural people didn't think in terms of "not in so-&-so's league" back then. They considered the whole person, not just surface appearance.
shareThe problem I had with Sturgess is that his acting isn’t good enough and his character isn’t interesting. They should have cast a better actor.
