The Truth about Cats & Dogs (1996) #1



I absolutely love this movie. I bought it on dvd a few weeks ago and finally got to watch it last night. Ive seen it a few times before in the thearter and still it was a very cute movie. I can so relate to Janeane Garofalo's character Abby. She is like another me and plus she gets the very hott actor Ben Chaplin in the movie.

Has anyone else seen this movie?



Movie Trailer


Abby: You forgot to say I love you because you're beautiful.
Brian: No, I didn't. I mean, she is. But that's not why I love her.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brian: You know how someone's appearance can change the moment you know them? How a really attractive person, if you don't like them, can become more and more ugly; whereas someone you might not have even have noticed... that you wouldn't look at more than once, if you love them, can become the most beautiful thing you've ever seen? All you want to do is be near them.

*****
Abby: I have to tell you something.
Brian: What?
Abby: The other night on the phone... I'm pregnant.
Brian: Oh darling...

***

Brian: Are you sure it was me?
Abby: I don't know. I made a lot of phone calls that night.

****

Abby Barnes: If I was a guy, I think women would like, line up to go out with me. I'm smart. I have a good sense of humor. I make a great living.
Noelle: I'd f**k you.
Abby Barnes: Thank you, honey. I know you would.

****

Abby Barnes: How'd it go?
Brian: He snored, but we stood it.
Abby Barnes: How'd you do it?
Brian: He slept on my face so I couldn't hear him.

Oh, this movie is so good. I've watched a couple of times and it has been a treat.

My favorite quote is the first one on this thread when she said "You forgot to say I love you because you're beautiful." It was so in your face and well delivered.

Plus Ben is SUPER hot in this movie!

I love the scene towards the end where Abby (or "Donna") spends the day talking to Brian about anything and he gives her his coat (aww) and there's a chocolate candy in his pocket. And all the scenes with Hank the dog are adorable.

Yeah she is tall especially in the movie compared to Abby


S.A.S.H.A.: The coat and chocolate scene was funny. He was like " Who put that there?"


Rockstar: I so agree. Ben is really hott in this movie. I love the part towards the ending where she had to put those roller skates on and then he catches her.

I didn't care for this movie all that much, even though I like all the actors individually.

Why? Because I couldn't believe that some guy would prefer Uma over Janeane.

I mean - Janeane's DARLING! It's not like she's unattractive or anything, and the guy clearly liked her, so I just couldn't buy it, you know?

Still, I've rarely laughed so hard in my life as I did when I saw the dog in roller skates. Poor puppy. *giggles - wipes tears from eyes*

I love this movie! "What's wrong with your dog?" Love how she puts on the brit accent. Oh and when she went to that store and got her makeup done!! That was bad!!!

But I agree with shrrshrr. Janeane is more attractive than Uma, imo. How do you pronounce Janeane's name anyway? Jane-ann? Jan-neen?

JavieBot- Oh I know. I loved it when she did that brit accent.


Another favorite scene I liked is when Brian was taking pictures of Abby and Noelle. I loved how he was looking at Abby when he was taking pictures of her.

Abby: OK. So say you meet one of these no sparks women, and you really take the time to get to know her and then you become intellectually stimulated by her. You just really enjoy her personality, thereby igniting all your lust and passion. Have you ever thought about that?
Brian: Are you going to eat that?

I love that scene too.
