Characters

I quite like the idea of a simple, fresh faced female protagonist and a stranger looking boy, that isn't the traditional 'heart-throb' or vice versa. Two completely contrasting characters, an unimaginable pair-that works!

Cassie and Sid from Skins

Joel and Clementine from Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

Unsuitable partners illustrate perhaps a deserved change/break-up for later on in the film. Also helping in setting a miserable and unachieveing tone for the 'stuck' protagonist.
