And now for today's installment of Movies About Collectors:
Ghost World
This movie is a collector movie for many reasons:
1) It is based on a graphic novel / underground comic book
2) One of the characters, Seymour (played by Steve Buschemi), collects old records
3) Another character, Enid (Thora Birch from every 90's kids movie), is a budding artist
4) It is in many a DVD collectors' collections
5) It rocks your world and mine
Ghost World, which is based on the comic of the same name by Daniel Clowes, was nominated for best adapted screenplay at the 2002 Academy Awards and won several festival awards for writing and acting. Watch for scenes in Seymour's apartment where Enid looks through his large collection of records, which he orders in a particular fashion.
What a nice movie, I will watch it again
