The Lizzie McGuire Movie Page #7

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

from here, stage right,

and I must enter

from stage left.

What about my dress?

I have to get dressed.

It's in your dressing room.

Lizzie, you have time.

Calm down.

You can do it.

Of course I can do it.

This is moi

we're talking about.

I don't think I can do it.

Lizzie, you must.

We've rehearsed this.

You know the steps, the words.

You will be great.

I know.

How do you know?

Because.

Because you shine

like the light from the sun.

Paolo. Paolo.

Lizzie.

Gordo!

What are you doing here?!

Lizzie, that's

not important right now.

You need to listen to me.

I feel so bad. I cannot believe

you would do that for me.

- Why aren't you gone?

- Long story.

I want to hear it, but

I've got to get my dress on.

Listen to me.

Paolo is setting you up.

What are you talking about?

Actually, he is setting me up.

Freaky, huh?

Way freaky.

Way, way freaky.

That whole story

about Paolo doing his own music

and going solo.

That's lsabella.

She's the one that sings live.

Paolo is the one

that lip-synchs, not me.

Isabella wants to quit the act.

Paolo is just a liar.

This has all been some scheme

to set you up

and embarrass you onstage

so it looks

like lsabella can't sing.

Si, si, It's true.

Paolo wants to destroy

lsabella's career.

But Paolo would never

do that to me.

I don't believe you.

Isabella...

Lizzie, who are you

going to believe,

this boy you are knowing

your whole life

or this boy you are

just meeting who says,

"You shine with the light

from the sun"?

Okay. Well, then, you're here

now, so go and sing.

But I am not blond.

Paolo will know that it's me,

and he'll make an excuse

to leave.

But if we want to

get back at him

in front of the whole world

on live TV,

we must make him sing.

And really sing, not lip-synch.

How? What am I

supposed to do?

- I can't sing live!

Change! Change!

Change your clothes

and go up there and do

what you rehearsed.

Everything will be fine,

I-I promise.

- I have a plan.

- What plan?

So, what's the plan?

I don't know.

No, see, it doesn't matter

about the tickets,

because my daughter

is back there

impersonating

a famous pop star,

so I got to get in!

That's what everyone says.

Enough of this!

- Uhh!

- Uhh!

Let's go!

Did Paolo bring

the voice track for me?

No. No, he did not.

There is no track.

Paolo says you're gonna sing

live, like you always do.

Paolo and lsabella!

Sandro, turn down

lsabella's mike.

- What's that?

- Turn down the mike!

Have you ever seen

such a beautiful night?

I could almost kiss the stars

for shining so bright

When I see you smiling,

I go

"Oh, oh, oh"

I would never want

to miss this

'Cause in my heart

I know what this is

This is what dreams

are made of

Sing to me, Paolo.

This is

what dreams are made of

Okay.

Say buonasera to my new American

friend, Lizzie McGuire!

Paolo tried to use her

to fool all of you

into thinking I could not sing.

Lizzie McGuire is nice girl.

You try to hurt her.

Let me go, Sergei.

You work for me.

Not anymore, Paolo.

I quit.

Paolo!

Paolo cannot sing music.

Now he must face music.

- Was it all a lie?

- No, it's just...

- Do you want to hear us sing?

Have you ever seen

such a beautiful night?

I could almost kiss the stars

for shining so bright

When I see you smiling,

I go

"Oh, oh, oh"

I would never want

to miss this

'Cause in my heart

I know what this is

Hey, now

Hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

Hey, now

Hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

I've got

somewhere I belong

I've got

somebody to love

This is what dre-e-e-ams

Are made of

Wait! Isabella!

Go! Si!

Lizzie!

Ru-u-u-u-n!

Hey, hey, hey!

Have you ever wondered

what life is about?

You could search the world

and never figure it out

You don't have to sail

the oceans

No, no, no

Happiness is no mystery

It's here and now

It's you and me, yeah

Hey, now, hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

Hey, now, hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

I've got somewhere I belong

I've got somebody to love

This is what dre-e-e-ams

Are made of

Hey, now

This is what dreams

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, now

Hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

Open your eyes

This is what dreams

are made of

Shout to the skies

This is what dreams

are made of

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Then I see you smile

And I go, "Oh, oh, oh"

Yesterday

my life was duller

Now everything

is technicolor

Hey, now, hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

Hey, now, hey, now

This is what dreams

are made of

I've got somewhere I belong

I've got somebody to love

This is what dre-e-e-ams

Dre-e-e-ams

This is what dre-e-e-ams

Hey, now, hey, now

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, now, hey, now

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, now, hey, now

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey, now, hey, now

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Hey!

Lizzie got everything

you're supposed to get

when you go to Europe.

Adventure, romance,

total confidence.

Yeah?

Well, if all that can happen

to Lizzie McGuire,

the only thing I know now is

I don't know anything.

That's hot.

What?

Girls who think they know

everything are just a turnoff.

Really?

Oh, totally.

What about you

not ratting out Lizzie?

I mean,

that was just so...

not you.

That's good.

Si,

Aaaaaaah!

Mom, Dad, I'm so glad

that you guys made it.

You would have never

believed me.

That is for sure.

I thought after you found out

all I did, I would be grounded.

You're grounded for the rest

of the summer, sweetheart,

but we're really proud of you.

Lying, even for a good reason,

is beneath you, Gordon.

Yeah. I know. I know.

I'm a lying, spineless,

brownnosing jellyfish

with a hidden agenda.

I got it.

That may be true,

but I'll tell you something.

Little Miss Diva

told me everything.

The way I see it, you're

a pretty loyal friend, Gordon.

And loyalty goes a long way

with the Ungermeyer.

- Hmm?

- Thanks.

Hey, just think about it.

We got 4 years of high school

to look forward to together.

Ooh. Sammies.

Sergei is hungry.

So is Miss Ungermeyer.

You are strong woman.

You protect cubs like lioness.

Sergei is impressed.

Hmm. You're still on my list.

As long as I am at the top.

Hey, there!

I bet you're wondering,

who is this Lizzie McGuire,

where did she come from,

and what are her

most embarrassing moments?

Well, I can give you

total access to all of that

for a very competitive price.

Hmm. When in Rome...

Yeah, yeah.

Do as the Romans do, right?

No.

We do not blackmail

our sisters.

As a former commander

in the ltalian Navy,

I am ordering you

to leave the country.

No!

Hey.

So, one last sneak-away

for old times' sake?

Yeah. Sounds good.

Okay.

Aha.

No!

So, are you gonna miss it here?

I don't know.

Kate says I should stay

and have my stuff shipped over,

because when I leave,

it'll never be the same.

She's wrong, as usual.

You didn't have to be in Rome

for all this to happen.

You think?

Trust me.

You had it in you
