About
Released in 1989, Say Anything is a defining late-80s romantic drama written and directed by Cameron Crowe. The film stars John Cusack as Lloyd Dobler, an earnest, underachieving kickboxer with a big heart, and Ione Skye as Diane Court, a brilliant, driven valedictorian standing on the edge of her future.
Set in the summer after high school graduation, the film follows Lloyd and Diane as they fall into an unexpected relationship while navigating ambition, class differences, parental influence, and the fear of growing up. Tender, funny, and quietly radical in its sincerity, Say Anything gave us one of cinema’s most enduring romantic gestures and cemented Cusack as an icon of thoughtful, emotionally articulate masculinity.
