    	John Cusack is a kickboxer-in-training who falls for a somewhat
    	rich girl, Ione Skye.  And he does, basically, "say anything",
    	IE, he rambles quite a bit.

    The best bit about this flick was Pete Gabriel's "In Your Eyes"

    Apart from the song, the story line was good also.  It was a "feel
    good" Movie.  The girl he falls in love with, is a rich girl, right,
    but more stress is put on her intellegence. She's the valedictorian
    and he's....a kickboxer.  She's played by Ione Skye (Leach - she 
    dropped that since her last movie... The Rivers Edge). She is a very
    beautiful woman, and daughter of Folk Singer, Donovan (who also doesn't
    use that last name). The title "Say Anything" applies to Lloyds (John
    Cusacs) "Nervous Talking thing", but also applies to Diane Courts (Ione
    Skyes) relationship to her father (Played by - I forgot his name - but
    he's Fraiser's Dad on the popular sitcom of the same name).
    
    Excellent movie.
