Have you read and or seen The Rules of Attraction? I am Lauren, I am convinced. And in the past, the cocaine part was completely relevant. There's a good monologue she has at the beginning of the movie about saying the wrong actors names, mentioning the wrong things, etc. and that's generally how I feel. I often reread it when I feel chaotic. It doesn't do any good but it's fun nonetheless.
And on another random side note: if I could choose an actor to play me in the movie of my life, it would be the girl who plays lauren, whose name eludes me, or Asia argento. Hands down.

That film was among mankind's greatest crimes.
I don't think I really connect with any character in any movie off the top of my head. Maybe if I sat down and thought for a while I could come up with something. It's like, sometimes I share an attribute or interest with a character but they'll completely lose me on something else.
One of my loose acquaintances made out with Asia Argento at a party one time, according to local legend. This was, of course, years before she was married.
I think Clea Duvall would play me in a movie about my real life. Then again, I think we might do that whole Bob Dylan movie thing where the person playing me kept changing through the movie.
In a movie with me, but not about my real actual life I would probably go in a different direction. Most likely to be played by a sassy British guy.

That's terrible! But seriously: Don't get me started on Bret Easton Ellis. I absolut-ively hate that guy.
