YMMV / Gia

• Best Known for the Fanservice: Some people only remember the film due to the lesbian sex scene and assorted nude scenes.
• Ho Yay: Happens during an early photoshoot of Gia's, when she convinces two guys to make out with each other.
• Retroactive Recognition:
  • A much younger Mila Kunis plays Gia as a child.
  • Thomas and the Magic Railroad and Final Fantasy XII actor/voice actor Michael E. Rodgers and anime/cartoon voice actor Brian Donovan had minor roles in this film.
• Tearjerker:
  • Gia's death and the lead-up to it is an obvious one, but there are many others.
  • Gia's mother leaving her all over again, with Gia begging her to stay.
  • Gia's reaction to Wilhelmina's death.
  • Linda forcing Gia to choose between her and the drugs (made even worse when Gia chooses the drugs).
  • Gia's rape at her drug dealer's hands...
  • Gia's heartbreakingly innocent reaction to finding out she has AIDS.
  Gia: How do I get rid of it?
• The Woobie: Both Gia and Linda become this during the course of the movie.
