The Lizzie McGuire Movie Page #4

Synopsis: Teen queen Lizzie McGuire grows up a bit and hits the big screen in this comedy drama, based on the popular Disney Network series. Lizzie McGuire and her best friends Kate, Gordo, and Ethan have just graduated from middle school, and to celebrate, they're taking part in a class trip to Rome, Italy. Eager to celebrate their new maturity as high school students, Lizzie and her pals hope to live it up in one of Europe's most fabled cities, but fate has something more spectacular in store for Lizzie. Lizzie discovers that she bears a striking resemblance to Isabella, an Italian teen-pop idol famous for her duets with heart-throb Paolo -- so much so that when Paolo and Isabella have a falling out, he asks Lizzie to take Isabella's place for an upcoming concert. Lizzie, however, isn't sure she feels comfortable stepping into the spotlight, and is even less sure about the way she feels about Paolo, who makes no secret of his infatuation with her. Things don't get any simpler for Lizzie when h

that I like Lizzie

as more than a friend.

You and I

have trouble communicating?

You're wrong, man.

Whoa!

This girl looks freakishly

like my sister!

- Ow.

- Zoom! Zoom!

Another freakish coincidence.

I mean, she has the same

necklace as my sister's.

Huh.

Why do we even pretend

you're in charge?

- Let's see what this says.

Ow.

"lsabella goes blond.

Italian pop duo

Paolo and lsabella

wowed the crowd outside a shop

near the Trevi Fountain,

showing off lsabella's

new blond hair."

They must think that Lizzie

is this famous singer!

And if I show this to my mom,

Lizzie will be so busted!

If you show this to your mom,

it's worth nothing.

But if you show this

to the ltalian tabloids,

we will be rolling in cash,

my friend.

Interesting!

"We"?

Not up to toughing it out

on the streets with us?

Not up to toughing it out

on the streets with us?

I could try, Miss Ungermeyer.

No, I just hate seeing you

being denied

the cultural experience

of being in a foreign country.

You missed seven points

of historical significance

yesterday.

I know. It's really killing me

too, Miss Ungermeyer.

Which is why I thought

I'd bring you something

to help ease the pain, hmm?

Mmh, well, that's really

thoughtful of you.

Seeing as how

your teeny- tiny little body

doesn't have the strength,

we're gonna have to let

your mind do the wandering.

Ah!

"The Rise and Decline

of the Roman Empire," hmm?

I'd like one report on the rise

and one on the decline.

Ouch!

If I didn't have a headache

a minute ago, I do now.

You don't have a problem

with that, do you?

Um, no.

- What else do I have to do?

Why not

Take a crazy chance?

Why not

Do a crazy dance?

If you lose the moment

You might lose a lot

So why not?

Why not?

Why not

take a crazy chance?

Wow.

I am so grateful for your help.

You're doing a very kind thing

for lsabella.

Uh, Paolo, where are we?

Via Condotti.

One of the most expensive

shopping districts

in the world.

We must find you

the perfect outfit.

Ah!

Oh, hey, lsabella, Paolo!

Ciao!

Your hair is so blond

and, uh, innocent.

- Who did it?

- Um...

The island we were on

was really, really sunny,

so it was j-just the sun.

We must get sun, too, no?

Ciao, bella!

Ciao, Ciao, Ciao.

They are so tall!

- They all want to be you.

- They want to be lsabella.

Sit and I'll get Franca.

I will just be a moment.

Whoa! Take your time.

I'll just be sitting here

in heaven.

Hard as it is to imagine,

as we look at the ruins

of the Forum,

that this was once

the center of commerce,

religion, and politics

in ancient Rome.

All right, now,

the Forum came into being

in the sixth century B.C.,

and with it,

a new urban culture was born.

Uh, um, di-

Yeah, Craft?

Is it time for the spaghetti?

It's 9:
00 in the morning.

So? You never had leftover

spaghetti for breakfast?

I don't eat carbs.

You never had

a spaghetti sandwich, either?

This cultural experience

is, like, so wasted on you.

Excuse me, where did you

buy that Prada bag?

Craft! Sanders! Separate.

We did, Miss Ungermeyer.

And thank God.

Why don't you people, uh,

do something at your, uh,

skill level here?

Take a 10-minute shopping break

while I choke down an espresso.

This dude definitely spent

too much time on his biceps

and not enough on his abs.

Totally old school.

Wha-

Nice spy, bro.

Yeah, watch and learn.

The slow curve.

Works every time.

I've got to talk to them.

That's not how the slow curve

works. They come to us.

Um, eh, ciao.

- Ciao.

- Ciao.

Do you guys speak English?

Yes.

It is your friend we like.

Word.

Word?

Is that his name?

Yeah, sure.

Do you know who that is

on the cover?

- Oh, lsabella. Certo,

- Certo,

Do you think you guys could

translate it for me?

Um, only if

you introduce us to Word.

Can I keep the magazine, then?

Deal!

All right.

Let's go.

Ciao, Word.

Word?

Mmh?

English?

She's speaking English.

Our single is in English

and lsabella needs to practice.

What have you done?

Uh, uh, uh...

You look...

You look like a schoolgirl.

Maximus, what is wrong?

You love lsabella.

Nice Maximus.

Very odd.

There is something...

something very different

about you.

Um...

Rest.

The rest on the island

did lsabella good.

She is transformed.

Yeah.

Well, I cannot

put clothes on this.

You - fix the hair.

Fix the eyebrows.

Fix the lips.

- Oh!

- And fix the ears!

Fix the ears?

Jewelry.

Jewelry.

That's a language

every girl understands.

You better work

Covergirl

Work it, girl

Give it a twirl

Do your thing

On the runway

Work

You better work it, girl

Wet your lips

And smile to the camera

Work

- Ah! Aah!

- Work

- Turn to the right

- Oh!

Sashay

Chante

Well, it don't matter

what you wear

They're checkin' out

your savoir faire

Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah

And when you walked

into the room

You had everybody's eyes

on you

Supermodel

Work

Work it, girl

Do your thing

On the runway

Work,

you've got to work it, girl

Of the world

Wet your lips

And smile to the camera

Work

Work

- Aah!

- Work

Sashay

Chante

Work

Work

Work

Sashay

Chante

You better work

Work

Work

Give it up

On the ru-u-u-nway

Work

Work

Ohhhh

Whoo

Okay. Diva - good.

Tacky - bad.

We'll have to fix that.

Okay, none of these are me.

- Why are you laughing at me?

You're not supposed to be you.

If I have to go onstage

as lsabella,

then I-I'm gonna have to

be confident,

and that's the thing

I'm worst at.

- We are all the same that way.

- Not you.

Yes, me, and lsabella, too.

It's how she works

through her fears

that makes her strong.

Isabella doesn't let

Franca di Montecatini

tell her what to wear.

Isabella tells Franca.

Okay, so you're telling me

to tell Franca

di Monteca-teca- tecatini

how I should dress?

Si,

Test your strength.

Vai! Vai, vai,

You don't like my clothes?

No. No.

I-I love your clothes.

But I don't want you

to dress me.

What?!

See, I'm not your Barbie doll.

I am lsabella Parigi,

and I dress myself.

So, choices.

I-I need choices.

Whoa.

I really like these two.

You pick.

Both.

Both.

Wow.

This is the exact color

I wore to my spring formal.

- Danny Kessler thought...

Look at all of you.

You'd think that I'm American.

I am,

how you say, um...

awesome?

The island.

You should go more often.

Mmh.

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Goodbye, Lizzie McGuire.

Hello, fabulous.

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Come on

You make me feel

like a star

Oh, baby

You say, "Stay, baby, stay

Just the way you are"

And tell me, "Girl, you're

fine and you will shine

Forever in my heart"

That's why you,

yeah, you

You make me feel

like a star

Ooh, ooh, ooh

- There you go.

- Grazie.

Grazie.

Ooh, ooh, ooh

I'm ready for my close-up.

- Whoo!

I cannot believe

that not one Roman guy

has asked me out yet.

Look.

Paolo...

We gotta go!

Look.

Paolo...

We gotta go!

Where's the zoom

on this thing?

Uh, uh...

Hello? Excuse me.

Oh!

I'm sorry.

I was just...
