While this marks a positive development in Haneke's development as a filmmaker (one need only look at cruel use of the young boy in Funny Games for contrast), what's most striking about the film is its brilliant imagery and inventive use of sound.
In one scene, Anne searches frantically in the darkness for Ben using only a butane lighter. We can barely make out her image in the foreground, while in the background, off in the distance, we see Eva's tiny guiding bonfire burning in the blackness.
In another scene, the sound of the frantic flapping of a pet bird's wings creates nearly unbearable tension.

"... no teen-film romantic gesture can match Lloyd's boom-box blasting of Peter Gabriel's 'In Your Eyes.'" -- AllMovie
I sat across from her in a mall. We ate. Sharing an important physical event.
That's not even a scam.
A scam?
Going out as friends.
No, scam is lusting.
Then what's a date?
A date is prearrangement with a possibility for love.
Then what's love?
You mean a career? I don't know. I've thought about this quite a bit, and I would have to say... I don't wanna sell, buy, or process anything as a career. Or sell anything bought or processed or buy anything sold or processed... or process anything sold or bought... or repair anything sold, bought or processed.

1.
The Smithereens were commissioned by Cameron Crowe to write the theme song for the movie, and they came up with "A Girl Like You". Crowe thought that the lyrics were too leading (they outline the entire plot), so he rejected it in favor of Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes". "A Girl Like You" went on to be included in The Smithereens' next album, "11", and in the movie Backdraft (1991) by Ron Howard.
2.
Director Cameron Crowe couldn't find the love song he wanted until he heard Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes". Gabriel asked to see part of the movie. Crowe had the production company send him an unfinished cut. Gabriel responded by saying he would let them use the song, as he liked the film. He was, however, wary about the part where the lead character overdosed at the end. It was then that Crowe realized that Gabriel had been sent a copy of Wired (1989) instead.
3.
Robert Downey Jr. turned down the lead played by John Cusack.
4.
Christian Slater auditioned for the role of Lloyd Dobbler but director Cameron Crowe was adamant about getting John Cusack. Also, there was a tie between Ione Skye and actress Jennifer Connelly for the role of Diane Court.
5.
Director Cameo: [Cameron Crowe] and wife Nancy Wilson as pedestrians in front of the mall as Lloyd passes by while recalling the site of their first "date".
6.
The movie's line "I gave her my heart, and she gave me a pen." was voted as the #73 of "The 100 Greatest Movie Lines" by Premiere in 2007.
7.
Ione Skye once dated Anthony Kiedis, lead singer of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, whose song "Taste the Pain" opens the movie.

"Lone Star is the cinematic equivalent of a compulsive page-turner, a thoroughly engaging story filled with characters that are plentiful yet not shabbily rendered, and intrigue that is thought-provoking rather than sensational." -- AllMovie
Back in the early '70s, a reporter from a national magazine asked the governor of our Lone Star state: "Governor... what's your ideal of what a real Texan ought to be?"
Governor said: "Son, that's easy. Just go down to Rio County and look at Sheriff Buddy Deeds."
Thank you.

"But Coixet never once resorts to spell-it-out narration or "seize the day" histrionics. Her heroine ends the film as she began it: reserved, modest, and with no desire for martyrdom." -- AllMovie
