whats ur favorite scene?
Mine was definitely the part where Charlotte was making Joe the sandwiches that he could "sink his teeth into"and then her mom comes over and makes them into stars. It was hilarious.

I love the star cookie cutter scene with the sandwiches.

I think it´s when Kate (??) wants to taste some wine and charlotte says one glass and just sipping. As soon as charlotte turns her back kate washes down glass after glass. A bit tragic if it would happen in real life but the scene makes me laugh...!
shareWhen Lou and the girls paint the room to look like its under the sea and then turn the lights out and put on the turning lamp; its magical.
I loved the paint the room scene as well.
shareI like the scene when they see Joe pull up in the school bus and Rachel says, "Why Miss Charlotte I do believe you're blushing" in that Southern belle drawl.
Also I like the scene when Charlotte talks to Joe on the bus and she's having all of those hilarious thoughts ("Give me the strength not to sit on his lap", "He's talking about his dead mother and I'm wishing he was unbuttoning my dress".
The scene where they are going to fish and she trips and he catches her but she kinda lingers against him. And how she sighs to herself when he lifts her in the boat. So cute!
I also liked the scene where she was trying to talk to her mother and Charlotte was thinking "I may be pregnant with the next Jewish Italian messiah"
The whole gynecologist scene was hilarious.
And when Charlotte's on the porch swing and she says to herself "I love him. He has the most beautiful skin in captivity. I love him because he wears moccasins in the winter even though his feet must feel like blocks of ice".
Oh.. and I love the "If you wanna be happy" dance scene.
It's gotta be the gynecologist's office scene, all of it! I specially like it when the nurse calls for 'Joan Arc', and how non-chalantly Charlotte says "I just have a question" while lying on the examination table or whatever it is called, but my favourite part is when the Doctor is explaining to Charlotte that she's still a virgin. "I wanna die. I wanna die right now".
And the sandwiches scene is great too.
Charlotte: "Noooooooooooo!"
Rachel: "What?"
Im completely in love with Paint the room scene. it is, as earlier stated, magical
Im also a big fan of Kate lying under water in the tub. so cute

My favorite scene has to be the fight scene between Rach and Char....Man the tension that scene creates is the same from the first time to the twentieth time that I have watched that movie. Plus its kinda the moment that we are all waiting for...including Cher's character...the moment that Char truely says what is on her mind and lays down some of what she actually wants from her mother.
And any scene where Char is having her inner monologues just cracks me up. The girl is just screwy...lol
Hmm, I see I'm the only one on the board to pick this scene... oh well =)
I LOVE the scene where Katie's walking around with the pumpkin on her head (not too long after the infamous "sandwich scene") going "RACHEL FLAAAAAX!" and then falls down. My little brother saw that scene when he was younger and made me play it about 100 times over LOL.
I also like the one where Katie's in the bathtub and Rachel tells Charlotte something like "I can't look. If she's not up in 10 seconds, call an ambulance." I just love how she says it so calmly while flipping through her magazine LOL. That and the part where she said something like "You know Charlotte, I know you're planning a celibate life, but with half my chromosomes (or "chromosones" rather, since that's how she seemed to say it) I think that might be tough."
I too also like the ending dancing scene; they look sooo much like mother and daughter there, especially since Charlotte's tastes in clothing seem to have gotten more like her mother's by then. Cute scene =)

There are a lot of scenes I like...but I think the end dancing scene would have to be my very favorite.

When Lou & the girls paint the room to look like the bottom of the ocean - that was incredible!
