Is Ghost World a chick flick? No. It's a film about chicks though. One in particular most men would know about: Scarlett Johansson. I'm not a real big fan of these sort of films. It's like Juno, where the film is told in the point of view of one of the characters, and just follows them like a documentary of their life. But its also one of those movies you don't really take at face value to fully appreciate the story and motives behind the writing. Anyway, I'm not going to review the film at all or spoil anything here besides saying that Ghost World worth watching.

Ghost World: Set in the summer after graduation, Enid and Rebecca are both outsiders in a world slowly being engulfed by fake 50's diners and Starbucks.
