Molly Maxwell Page #3

Synopsis: At Phoenix Progressive School, where everyone tries to outdo each other with creative self-expression, 16-year-old Molly Maxwell (Lola Tash) would rather be invisible than risk revealing herself as completely ordinary. When her young, handsome, disillusioned English teacher (Charlie Carrick) enters the picture and allows her to just be herself, Molly is suddenly able to flourish. As their student-teacher bond becomes more intimate, she begins putting herself on the line in unexpected ways while pursuing what she wants. But with each awkward, beautiful step towards an impossible romance, Molly risks alienating everyone she loves.

No, if I'm gonna do this,

Then I'm gonna do it properly.

I'm not a slacker.

Wow.

Well, wasn't the idea just to get Raymond off my back?

I don't recall saying that

you wouldn't have to do any work,

just that you didn't have to be the next Diane Arbus.

Right. Diane Arbus.

Love her.

Look her up.

Well, atleast we have a spinning wheel.

No, make your eyes look more dead.

And don't do that with your lips.

Just look bored.

If you don't like how I'm doing if,

then take pictures of Gala.

Just don't pose so much.

I think you look hot.

Ben was felling me about this really awesome photographer

who takes pictures of all kinds of freaks.

I heard that Ben rides a motorcycle.

I don't think that's true.

- But he is in a bond.

- Look who's the Ben expert.

Yep, just like that, Gala.

Hey... do you ride a motorcycle?

No. Why? Should I?

I don't know, probably.

Maybe we shouldn't look of this batch.

You're like a boiling tea kettle.

What does that even mean?

I don't know, actually.

Okay.

All right.

The moment of truth.

Not too shabby.

Of course, they'd be better it they were in focus

and not overexposed, but it's not like those are

the basic principles of photography or anything.

Not bad.

Not one word, Mom.

Okay, okay, I just think it's great.

That was seven words.

Take my picture.

Can you turn your body into a pretzel?

I can try.

See? You're a natural.

I think it'll be very cool to have a photographer

in the family.

Mom!

Just saying.

You'll want to cut down

on the practice there, monkey.

Your body's starting to look weird.

Wanna come see Heidi Slater?

Yeah!

See ya.

Isn't she something?

What are you doing here?

My dad's over there.

She's gonna be the next Feist, apparently.

Oh, thank God for that.

We need a new one.

Do you think your dad could introduce us?

And you could do your English homework

of the bar while you wait.

I actually have some work to do in the dark room.

Dude, I scored some poi cookies.

It's not exactly how I want

to spend the afternoon either,

but I have to pass.

Save me a cookie!

Lame! You're lame!

Favourite food?

Sushi

Very sophisticated.

Yeah.

What's your real favourite food?

Sushi

What's your real favourite f...

Okay, nachos!

That's what I thought.

Keep doing that.

Favourite place.

The island, probably.

That's specific.

Toronto Island.

You don't know?

It's just across the lake, but it's like another planet.

Raymond must love that.

You know it.

There's a lot of great stuff there, like...

a lame amusement park.

I love lame amusement parks.

Yeah.

We should go there on a field Trip.

I'm tired of taking photos of my friends.

I'm tired of your friends.
