3 Thoughts on Boys Don't Cry

1. So, I am finally watching this film (I'm only 10 years behind) and I am thinking "This movie is just perfectly average." Then, the last 30 minutes hit, and those 30 minutes are amongst the most intense I have ever witnesses on screen. (Think of the anticipation of the Germans coming for the climactic battle in Saving Private Ryan...except take out soldiers and insert a chick pretending to be a dude.)
2. I don't really have any witty comments, Boys Don't Cry is just an awesome, awesome movie.
3. Since when did Becky Conner move from Lanford, Illinois to Falls City, Nebraska? I kid, I kid.
