In der kanadischen Dramödie I Like Movies zieht sich der extrem egozentrische und alle Sozialkontakte meidende Lawrence (Isaiah Lehtinen) in seine Leidenschaft für Filme zurück. Durch seine Obsession gefährdet er nicht nur seine eigene Freundschaft, sondern auch seine Zukunft, die extrem davon abhängt, mehrere Tausend Dollar zu verdienen, um an seiner Traumuni aufgenommen zu werden. Dafür arbeitet er in seiner örtlichen Videothek, wo sich eine komplizierte Freundschaft mit seiner älteren Kollegin entwickelt.

00:04It's rejects night!
00:11Lawrence, this assignment was to do a video essay on bias in the media.
00:15I'm sorry. I just think that you should make films about things that matter to you.
00:19What are you filming?
00:20Clouds.
00:21Okay, stop.
00:22Movies are my entire life. I need to watch movies like I need to breathe air.
00:31You guys finding everything okay today?
00:34Do you work here?
00:35No. I just wanted to give you a hard copy of my resume.
00:38I'm very good at beginning with the end in mind, which for me is going to NYU Tisch School for the Arts.
00:44I just don't understand why you won't apply to Canadian universities.
00:47Because I don't want to be like a Canadian filmmaker.
00:50What about Adam McGuane or David Ro...
00:52Cronenberg! Oh my god!
00:55How many advanced copies of Shrek do you think you can sell?
00:59Don't care.
01:00I thought I got hired here to talk about real cinema.
01:02I love doing inventory.
01:06So how long have you worked here for?
01:07Four years.
01:08That's like a really long time. Did you ever want to do anything else? Like have a career?
01:13I have a career.
01:15I was wondering what you thought about me coming to New York.
01:18I don't know. When I moved to New York, I see myself becoming like a completely different person.
01:22So you're just not going to want to be my friend?
01:24Mom, I want to go to NYU.
01:26We can't afford you to go to NYU because your single mom is a secretary.
01:30There have been some reports of emotional instability.
01:34Look, I know that you can tell that Lawrence is not like a regular kid.
01:38He has serious emotional problems.
01:41Come on.
01:44I like can't believe my job is to make you feel good about yourself.
01:48You are very privileged, Lawrence!
01:50I don't feel privileged!
01:54It's so depressing to know that I have to go through the rest of my life just like me.
02:00I think you should go to a party.
02:02No, no. I like movies.
02:10I like movies.
