"I agreed that what really matters is what you like, not what you are like... Books, records, films - these things matter."

--Rob (John Cusack) in High Fidelity




I immediately thought of this as well upon seeing the site.

However didn't he come to the realization later in the book that perhaps those things aren't so important?

(I hope to come to that realization some day as well, soldiering on until then.)


I honestly can't remember, I've only seen the movie once, like 6 years ago, when a girl I was dating showed it to me primarily because she liked this quote. Other than this, I don't recall much of the movie.


Ah, I was referring to the book... maybe it wasn't in the movie

As an aside, if you enjoyed the movie and have not read the book, please do. It's a very easy and thoroughly enjoyable read.


It's in both the book and the movie.

I watch the movie often.
