I'm probably going to get killed for saying this but ...
Although I felt absolutely no ...
I MEAN NO CHEMISTRY between Sean and Liz I have to admit to one thing.
I loved when Liz shows up at the bowling alley to meet Sean after seeing Max and Tess kissing at the prom.
I'm happy they didn't go the route of having her run home and cry herself to sleep.
I felt like it was the start of her changing, growing up and realizing that she deserved to be happy and it was ok to act crazy and reckless, and not always worried and serious. I felt like she was beginning to understand that it's not selfish to think about herself, especially at that age.
It almost seemed like she was coming into her own personality or at least on the road to finding it
OF course at the time all I could do was think about the fact that Max kissed Tess, but now after all these years I have to admit is was a really well written scene.
Sometimes you get so attached to someone that you begin to give up your own idenity and just worry about the other person's happiness, it's easy to lose yourself in someone else when your in love.
Like I said before I'm definitely not a fan of Sean
BUT I loved that he was able to make her see a different side to herself.
I loved how she was sliding across the bowling alley in her socks in her prom dress.... she was heartbroken but she knew that life was not over for her ... the dialogue was really beautiful...I thought she did a great job at a really difficult scene.
(I am a dreamer by the way, so I'm going to run and hide now...
