Penelope's character was so...

f^cking annoying. She was trying too hard to be cutesy. She acted like she was 12.

I'm actually very balanced. I have a chip on both shoulders.

I agree, she was all the thing in 2001, and they obviously wanted someone to be opposite of Diaz, Juliana, but in continued viewing (which I do) she is annoying.
Who else could have played that part?

Ephemeron.

I don't know. Guess you can't blame her, per se. It's the way she was directed.

But, ugh, so f^cking annoying.

And the amazing thing is: she played the same part, so differently, in the Spanish original Abre los Ojos.

Whose idea was it for the word "Lisp" to have an "S" in it?

No, men do not. Boys do. Boys of any age.

She only fucking met him once before his accident.. It wasn't like she had been married to him for years and then left him after he was disfigured.

Still vapid and shallow

Nobody would become someones carer after meeting them once. You wouldn't either. So I guess that makes you shallow too.

I get that but for more than half the movie she is only in his mind and in the beginning she is trying to be flirty in order to catch his attention. Girls are very much like her on the first few dates, it's when she stayed the same way after he woke up in the alley that sirens should have been going off in his head.
