No more big eyes at me on the couch.

seren_ccdSo, here is my first attempt at dream casting a book!
This is who I'd love to see on-screen should they ever film Crazy for You by Jennifer Crusie. Blame can be laid at the feet of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
robanybody whose own amazing dream casts inspired me. ♥ Oh, and fringedweller can be blamed for re-introducing me to Chris O'Donnell. :D
This is really, really bad for dial-up!
Crazy for You
"You’re right, it’s the couch,” he said, refusing to look at her. “Classical conditioning. It’s not me, it’s the couch.
Quinn looked at the dog again and said, “As soon as I get you out of this storeroom, I’m taking a serious look at my love life.”
“I did not pancake the third time. I may have made a small musical error and blown my dismount, but pancake, no.”
A real man’s man, her father had said when she’d brought him home the first time. Which would explain why she didn’t want him now. Let the men have him.
“Because sometimes you need something new to feel alive again, Max. Sometimes what used to be good isn’t enough.”
“It’s been two weeks, and all she’ll say is she wants something new.” He looked around Bo’s as if it were Sodom. “Well, this is new. Damn it.”
“I am glad for you,” Meggy said. “It’s just, all these changes—” She picked up her purse and sighed. “Never mind, I’m probably just jealous.”
“She started yapping that I never listen to her, and I asked her if this was menopause, and she sort of screamed that was two years ago, and threw me out.” He looked at Nick. “Can they get that twice?”
“I’m moving in with your mother,” Edie said. “She decided that if you could change your life, so could she.” She looked over at Meggy with fond approval.
Thea went on. “And then you said, ‘Don’t settle,’ and I thought—” She shrugged. “It was stupid.”
Jason shrugged. “She’s smart. She’ll want to talk Shakespeare or something.”
“You look like a Katie. K-K-K-Katie, just like the song. A pretty, skinny K-K-K-Katie.”
I'm also picturing Noah Wyle as Bobby Gloam, Boy Principal and Emily Proctor as Barbara Niedermeyer.
This was fun! I hope you liked it!

That being said, PRETTY CAST IS PRETTY!

Date: 2011-05-23 03:42 am (UTC)I Jennifer Godwin is PERFECT for Quinn. I would never in a million years though of Skarsgard for Bill (Bill was always a huge, bear-like man in my mind) but I kind of thing it would be fascinating to see Skarsgard playing a more emotional villain, if that makes sense.
