Great Moments In Movie Shelves #22

.
Joel: Hi.
Clementine: Hi. Didn't figure you'd show your face 
around me again. I guess I thought you were...
humiliated. You did run away, after all.
Joel: I just needed to see you.
Clementine: Yeah?
 .
Joel: I'd like to, um... take you out, or something.
Clementine: You're married.
Joel: Not yet, not married. No, I'm not married.
 .
Clementine: Look man, I'm telling you right off the bat, 
I'm high-maintainance, so... I'm not gonna tip-toe around 
your marriage, or whatever it is you've got goin' there. 
If you wanna be with me, you're with me.
.
Joel: Okay.
Clementine: Too many guys think I'm a concept, 
or I complete them, or I'm gonna make them alive. 
But I'm just a fucked-up girl who's lookin' for 
my own peace of mind; don't assign me yours.
.
Joel: I remember that speech really well.
Clementine: I had you pegged, didn't I?
Joel: You had the whole human race pegged.
Clementine: Hmm. Probably.
Joel: I still thought you were gonna 
save my life, even after that.
.
Clementine: Ohhh... I know.
Joel: It would be different, if we could just 
give it another go-round.
Clementine: Remember me.
Try your best; maybe we can.

This scene is my ultimate nightmare - the erasure of books in a bookstore. CHILLING.

But everything about this scene (and this film) is gorgeous.
