Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCharlotte Ray Rosenberg grew so much during the shoot that, in some scenes, Josh Hutcherson had to stand on "an apple box or little wooden pancake" (0:08:42 in DVD commentary) to keep their height differences consistent in the film.
- GoofsWhen Gabe and Rosemary are trying to make a date, Rosemary says she cannot meet Sunday morning because she is studying for the ERBs to get into Private School (at 0:24:25). In order to get into the New York private schools you have to take the ISEEs, not the ERBs.
- Quotes
Gabe: Love is an ugly, terrible business practiced by fools. It'll trample your heart and leave you bleeding on the floor. And what does it really get you in the end? Nothing but a few incredible memories that you can't ever shake. The truth is, there's gonna be other girls out there. I mean, I hope. But I'm never gonna get another first love. That one is always gonna be her.

Featured review
Beautiful movie...
It's about time! I've been tired of the usual romantic comedies -- guy in high-school/college/work falls in love with beautiful girl -- the courting.. the romanticism (i mean physical stuff! a lot of it!).. breakup.. rejoining.. happy ever after.
The usual formula.. it's followed since the start of time and it will remain there until the nukes destroy this world. BUT this movie had something different to offer.. of course there's a guy and definitely there's a girl.. and yES! he falls in love! that's obvious.. wouldn't be a romantic comedy without that..
One thing that is definitely different in this case is that the boy is a 10 yr old and the girl.. um.. 11 yrs..
So.. yeah.. a brilliant concept.. looking at love from the perspective of a kid. Something we saw before in The Wonder Years of course.. but much more. It gives you a very personal look at New York and Manhattan. The emotions and the feelings evoked by the whole affair in the situation is realistic and very funny.
Overall a feel good movie with a different twist on the physical side of love.. Please watch it! I'm sure you'll love every second!
