Say Anything

ComedyDramaRomance100 min

Fresh out of high school, eternal optimist Lloyd Dobler decides to win over Diane Court, the class valedictorian who seems far out of his league. John Cusack is Lloyd, an underachiever with a direct, openhearted streak, opposite Ione Skye's Diane, whose feelings for him complicate a future already mapped out by her overprotective father. What begins as an unexpected summer romance runs into parental disapproval and the uncertainty of what comes after graduation.
