Is Joe the perfect man?


I'm afraid that he is: soulful, quiet, capable of great emotions, handy, tall, likes nature, and yes, very handsome.

I love Joe and was heartbroken that he moved away and most likely never to be united with Charlotte again. I'm such a sucker for movies like this.

No! I didn't think he was as hot as people said. He didn't do much. And he was a bit predator-like! I know she was up for it and practically initiated it but there was a huge age gap, I like to think that a perfect man would be able to walk away from a 15 year old! My friend's ex at only 21 turned down a 16 year old and all my group of friends agreed that was too much of a gap...I know it was different then, but even so he knew how innocent she was! And he kissed her Mum!

I didn't get his character at all. Also, the perfect man would do foreplay; he just went right in!

If you LOVE atheism and are 100% proud of it copy this and make it your signature!

Also, he never even called Charlotte by her name. He would just walk up to her and start talking or just talk to her.

He sure was in that town. Every other man was middle aged.
