Aside: [QUOTE=Ponch8] It also made good old Gainesville, Florida look like a total redneck town. I was going to school there at the time the movie came out. The audience burst out laughing when Keanu Reeves said, “I’m not going back to Gainesville!” [/QUOTE] Charlize makes a comment that in another five or ten years they might be able to scratch together enough “to buy a weekend shack in Gulf Shores”, which I also thought was kind of funny. In addition to Gulf Shores being a majorly developed place of high rise condos where a “shack” would cost half a million easy if it’s got any waterfront there’s the fact it’s almost 400 miles from Gainesville; they must have a lot of long weekends. ---
