Paula: We shouldn't be watching this.
Jerry: Why not? I think she's beautiful.
Paula: Mmm-hmmm.
Jerry: You think I'm planning to abuse the doctor-patient relationship.
Paula: Are you?
Jerry: No. Just because I think she's beautiful doesn't mean I want to have sex with her. I mean, I think you're beautiful, but.
Paula: Thanks.
Jerry: No, wait. I didn't mean... I'm sorry.
Paula: It's ok, I'm a big girl.

Jodie Foster acted the part of Nell well and was one of Jodie Fosters better movie.
9. 5/10. A masterpiece of cinema. Jodie Foster delivers a brilliant performance here with Liam Neeson and Natasha Richardson. She plays the title role of a recluse living in the woods with a childlike innocence, rarely done right nowadays. I wouldn't have been surprised if she'd won awards for this role. Nell seems almost like she never stopped looking at the world and people like a child would. It's like Carrie White became a recluse in the woods and forgot all about the outside world. Nell here is at peace, content with her simplistic existence. She seems to teach more to the scientists that Neeson and Richardson play than what they teach her. A beautiful, forgotten movie of the 90's.
