The Breakfast club
Dawson: Joey, it's
just a matter of time.
Joey: Before what, before my
brain short circuits and I start bedding down with every guy
with a fast car and big biceps?
Dawson: Before you find the right person.
Joey: I have.
Dawson: Joey?
Joey: I'm sorry Dawson, I don't
know whats going on. I have all these feelings, all these
weird feelings. I don't know how to say it and I can't say it.
We've known each
other for so long and you know everyting about me, everything,
and I can't even say
this, I can't. And I just feel really lonely.
Dawson: Joe, you're not alone.
Joey: Yes I am.
Dawson: Joe, I'm here for you, I was here
for you in sixth grade and I'm here for you now,
OK. Nothing you can say is going to change that, nothing. Maybe
if you just say
these things then, they'll be out in the open, the feelings won't
be as strong
anymore, you will be free.
Joey: I can't. I can't, because
if I say these things I can't ever take them back. It'll
change everything and I can't do that I can't.
Pretty Woman
Dawson: Joey, whats
wrong?
Joey: I don't know Dawson theres
something thats just not right about this.
Dawson: I thought this was what you wanted, I
mean....
Joey: It's my own stupid fault, I
mean dressing up, playing the princess, you and I both
know this isn't me.
Dawson: Joey, of course it is.
Joey: I thought this was what I
wanted, for you to see me as beautiful, for you to look at
me the way you look at Jen. But the truth is I don't want that at
all Dawson. I want
you to
look at me and see the person you've always known and realise
that what we
have
is so much more incredible than some passing physical attraction.
Joey: I'd
like to tell today's youth that wherever life takes you, big
cities, small
towns,
you'll inevitably come across small minds. People who think they
are better
than you are. People who think that material things or being
pretty or popular
automatically makes you a worthwhile human being. I'd like to
tell today's youth
that
none of these things matter unless you have a strength of
character, integrity,
a sense of pride. And if you are lucky enough to have any of
these things don't ever
sell
them, dont ever sell out. So when you meet a person for the first
time, please
don't judge them by their station in life, because who knows,
that person might just
end up
being your best friend.
Breaking Away
Joey:
Hi. I don't really know what I'm doing here. That's not true,
look I came here
tonight because I wanted to tell you that you messed up, you
really messed up and
not because you broke the law or you got caught, or you
left me without a father.
You messed up because you don't know me, I'm your
daughter and you don't know me at
all. So I guess I just came to say that I'm alright, I
turned out pretty good and
I'm going to be OK, with no help from you. And I just
have one question, do you love
me?
Mr Potter: More than you will ever know and I'm sorry I am so
sorry.
Joey: Do you think about me?
Mr Potter: Sweetheart, all day long, every day, every hour,
every minute.
Joey: Do you really love me
though, because i'm 15 years old and I go through every day
of my life thinking nobody loves me.
Mr Potter: Well nothing could be further from the truth, I'm
not the only one, Dawson Leery,
he loves you Joey - He's never told you?
Joey: Never.
Mr Potter: Well he does, I know it.
Joey: How?
Mr Potter: Because he looks at you the same way your mother
used to look at me. And you love
him? Have you told him? You have to tell him Joey don't make my
mistake, don't wait
until someone you love is eaten with cancer and wasting away
while you hold back
the one thing they're waiting to hear.
Joey: I love you dad.
Dawson: Joey, god
i've been looking everywhere, where have you.. Look there's
nothing going
on between Jen and me, what you saw today was completely
innocent.
Joey: Look you don't have to
explain to me Dawson.
Dawson: Yes I do.
Joey: Why, why do feel the need
to explain, we're just friends thats all Dawson.
Dawson: Joey common you know that's not
true.
Joey: So what are we Dawson?
You know I am so tired of the way we relate to one another.
I mean we spend all our time analysing our sad little adolecent
lives.
Dawson: I know we know too many big words
but it's a good thing to analyse.
Joey: It doesn't get us
anywhere, I mean it doesn't move us forward, we are in the same
place we were three months ago. It's time to grow up Dawson.
Dawson: I know Joey we can, we are growing
up.
Joey: No were not. Every day is
the same, we watch a movie preferably a speilberg film,
find the appropriate life correlation and then we pat ourselves
on the back for
being so clever. You know in as much as our perception is dead on
our honesty is
severely lacking Dawson.
Dawson: There is sopmething lacking.
Joey: The reason I came here
tonight is because we need to move on. Look we're not kids
anymore, and I'm not going to do this anymore and I just thought
you should know.
Dawson: So are you going to France?
Joey: Ahhh the inevitable
cliffhanger, am I going to France.
Dawson: Are you?
Joey: Look I am tired of all
the drama in my life right now Dawson and leaving town just
makes the most sense to me so..
Dawson: No it doesn't.
Joey: Why should I stay? Is
there some new release at the video store I don't know about.
It's time to grow up Dawson.
Dawson: Then we'll do it together, Joey I
can grow up, give me a chance even spielberg
outgrew his peter pan syndrome.
Joey: I could have told you
that months ago Dawson.
Dawson: You did.
Joey: Look Dawson, i'm so tired
of dancing round these big words, I just want to be
honest with you.
Dawson: Me too, Joe more than anything I
just want to be honest.
Joey: Do you think we're ready
for that honesty?
Dawson: Yeah, I do.
Joey: Are you sure because
honesty is a big word and it changes things and it complicates
things and, are you sure you are ready for everything that goes
along with telling
the truth?
Dawson: [silence]
Joey: I'll see ya Dawson.
Dawson: Joey, Joey.........
And you
know what comes next ;)
