It's 1983 and 12-year-old Rain wants sex, the only problem is she has no idea what that means. With her self-absorbed parents distracted by their recent divorce, Rain is left alone to navigate the complexities of love and adulthood, and learns to do it her own way. ~ IMDB

Since it is in English and it is short...
maybe somebody can transcribe a dialog (about 140 lines)?
Timestamps for srt I can do myself

I will give it a try. I am working on it now.

Dialog here as best I can do:
It's been two years since I last watched this. The 1980's Woman's Self-Help advice was realistic for the time in its absurdity ... and a little sad. It was so naive I was not sure how much the girl was reading and how much she was writing herself. Giving a man a manicure is the way to his heart?? For metrosexuals, I guess.
I hope Gen Z girls are doing better with relationships, but I doubt it.
A few non-dialog parts I put in brackets [ ].
One part of the girl's narration I played on a loop over a hundred times and it still made no sense. The closest I got was
ferdi111, when you finish your subtitles make sure to post them here! I am sure there are others who are unclear with this girl's dialog.
The lead actress gets the Marlon Brando award for mumbling, and the director the Robert Altman award for overlapping dialog. She even overlaps the narrator with herself so that in a few places only words or phrases are distinguishable. Ultimately it is not meant for it to be completely clear, but rather impressionistic.It's been two years since I last watched this.

She does not actually say "encourage" but that is the closest sensible thing I could come up with.[08:34-08:36] encourage your intelligence.

It was an "artistic choice." Not one I personally am overly enthusiastic about, but still. When it turns the dialog into random phrases that a native English speaker interprets as gibberish, then everyone else does not have to worry about trying to make sense of it either. On a few occasions it seemed as if the beginning of a sentence from one audio edit was smoothly connected to part of another sentence from another audio edit, so someone might think it was ONE sentence that was supposed to make sense. I have read plenty of Burroughs with his cut-up technique, so I was prepared to "go with the flow," so to speak.ferdi111 wrote:That overlapping and mumbling were horrinle.
And it was easier for me than trying to figure out Swedish.

That naivity and absurdity made this one somehow watchable

A young girl's idea of what appeals to boys reflects what actually appeals to her as a girl, just as young boys think that girls like the same things they do. And it is very funny indeed! This is the part I love the most:
I am so very non-macho but this all so very girly.
And every single guy thinks, "You are missing the single most important thing, dear.""Things to do with your hands that men like."
Massage the back of his legs when he's standing up.
Give him a manicure.
Light a candle next to the bed.
Hold his big hand in your dear little ones at the cinema.
Plant a tree with him.
Put his belt....
Put your fingertips across his mouth.
Rearrange his tie after you've both mussed it.

Not sure how romantic it is by oppinion of girls when a boyfriend wish to make a manicure to
them (unless he is professional and even then,,,)
Suddenly in the candlelight something a la "Sweetheart, I wish to cut your toenails"
