Nowhere (film) - Cast

Cast

  • Cowboy (Guillermo Díaz) is another one of Dark's best friends; he is a gay rock musician struggling with balancing his band duties and his bandmate/boyfriend Bart (Jeremy Jordan), who is heavily addicted to drugs supplied by Handjob.
  • Egg (Sarah Lassez) is a young girl who becomes starstruck, resulting in an inadvertent meeting with a nameless heartthrob television star (Jaason Simmons), who sexually assaults her.
  • Shad (Ryan Phillippe) and Lilith (Heather Graham) are a nihilistic couple, crazed with sex and lust for life, and their segments are little more than clips that serve to illustrate this. Shad is Alyssa's twin brother.
  • Alyssa (Jordan Ladd) and Elvis are another couple touched on only briefly. In contrast to her brother's rather indicatively violent nature Alyssa is more demure, coquettish, and sweet. Her boyfriend Elvis (Thyme Lewis), a biker, is apparently flaky in his romantic commitment to Alyssa. Elvis has a sadomasochistic streak and as is exhibited towards the end of the film, capable of extreme violence.
  • Zero (Joshua Gibran Mayweather), Mel's younger brother, and Zoe (played by Mena Suvari in her first film role) are high schoolers, implied through dialogue to be sexually active though underage. Zero wants to impress Zoe by taking her to Jujyfruit's party but has some difficulty, in addition to further difficulties that arise in regard to arriving at the party.
  • Cowboy's boyfriend Bart's interaction with his drug dealer Handjob and his two S&M mistresses, Kriss (Chiara Mastroianni) and Kozy, who mutilate Bart despite his extreme state of drug intoxication.
  • Dingbat's airheaded social butterfly role coupled with her crush on Ducky (Scott Caan) makes her a major supporting character and keeps her involved throughout the story. She is friends with Ducky's sister Egg and she, along with Egg and Alyssa, have eating disorders (binging and purging, anorexia, and drug-induced appetite suppression).

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    “All great movements are popular movements. They are the volcanic eruptions of human passions and emotions, stirred into activity by the ruthless Goddess of Distress or by the torch of the spoken word cast into the midst of the people.”
    —Adolf Hitler (1889–1945)

    “For it is with the mysteries of our religion, as with wholesome pills for the sick, which swallowed whole, have the virtue to cure; but chewed, are for the most part cast up again without effect.”
    —Thomas Hobbes (1588–1679)

    “It was always the work that was the gyroscope in my life. I don’t know who could have lived with me. As an architect you’re absolutely devoured. A woman’s cast in a lot of roles and a man isn’t. I couldn’t be an architect and be a wife and mother.”
    —Eleanore Kendall Pettersen (b. 1916)
