Shopgirl

Shopgirl is a semi-independent film with Claire Danes. It also stars Steve Martin but that's beside the point as Claire is who is important here. It's a sophisticated and idiosyncratic movie about a bizarre love triangle. Danes, who is featured in almost every scene, plays a caracter that speaks more with facial expressions and body language than words, a redhead with a wardrobe torn from the pages of an Urban Outfitters catalogue. In other words, she has a somewhat spooky resemblance to Amy in both appearance and mannerism. Afterwards Amy said it was like looking in a mirror through the whole movie. All Claire Danes all the time for a solid two hours. It's hard to beat that.
