Ghost World
Scarlett Johansson and Thora Birch star as a pair of social outcasts struggling to make sense of the world around them, in this sublime love story based on the work of underground artist Daniel Clowes.
Director: Terry Zwigoff
Overview
Based on the work of underground artist Daniel Clowes, Terry Zwigoff's sublime film is a subtle, delicately paced, achingly original love story. Extrovert Enid (Thora Birch) and introvert Rebecca (Scarlett Johansson) are best friends who dream of sharing an apartment together. But when super cynic Enid meets painfully shy forty-something record collector Seymour (Steve Buscemi) her defences dissolve and these two outcasts bond spiritually and emotionally.
