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
finding young love in the City...
If you live in the City, and you like romantic comedies, this is for you. Sure its simple minded, predictable, and a bit schmoltzy, but it is really great.
First, you get a full and accurate tour of the City: Central Park, Upper West Side, the Village, its all in there, with proper continuity in the story (i.e. characters don't hyperspace around town to make the shots work).
Second, you get a great "first love" story. The lead character "Gabe" provides an amazing narrative of his experience with "Rosemary". It has the exploratory vantage point of youth coupled with the insightful perspective of adulthood.
And did I mention that you get Full Frontal New York City? Yeah, the City that is a city is basically an excellent supporting character in the movie, gently providing background and balance to the story.
Again, it won't be winning any awards anytime soon, but it will put a smile on your face.
