    I can't say anything jumped out at me. Though I'm neither an officer nor a gentleman, I do like the movie and relate to the experience they go through. I wish the Gere wasn't such an absolute dick. The Girl Next Door was a feel really bad movie. #LetterboxdFriday #lastfourwatched #FilmSky

    Every time I see this image from the 2004 movie, The Girl Next Door, the story of an adult film star taking a break to soul search, I can't help but think of Southern California in the early 2000s. I was there, writing. It's like a blur now, flying all over the place: L.A., New York, etc.

    The Girl Next Door (2004) is a movie about a shy young man who discovers an adult film star moved next door. It's one of my favorite films because it's about #friendship. I was in Hollywood in the early #2000s. I remember girls driving around in #Volkswagens with flowers on their dashes.

    I felt similarly about Jack Ketchum's The Girl Next Door (haven't seen the film adaptation). It's awful and emotionally exhausting, but Ketchum is a wonderfully empathetic writer, which is a big part of what makes his work so horrific!

    Share one of your ‘Secret Favorite’ films. Not a film everyone knows you love, but one you love that you rarely, if ever, show love for. 🎬 🤫 🖤 The Girl Next Door. Most people would skip it or be uncomfortable with the content, but it honestly has one of the sweetest love stories of the early 2000s

    72. The Girl Next Door (2004). The other great Emile Hirsch film from this era. This teen comedy about an adult film actress who moves in next to a goody two-shoes senior shouldn't have worked as well as it does, but Hirsh & Elisha Cuthbert are charming as fuck together. Dated but very funny.

    68.) THE GIRL NEXT DOOR (2004) - interesting in that the trailer actually doesn't convey that much of the movie's tone (it's much, much more hyper than the movie is) but it still works as a trailer for a movie that's better than most people realize
