they’ve got the attitude the looks and
the offbeat tastes to match even if some
of them came before the word existed
yeah make you dinner
no thank you welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top ten hipsters in movies so if
this was a touching romantic story our
eyes would meet and suddenly we would be
furiously making out with the fire of a
thousand suns but this isn’t a touching
romantic story anyway
yep for this list we’re taking a look at
characters who represent what some would
call a hipster based on their interest
in things that aren’t necessarily part
of the cultural mainstream their belief
in independent thought and their
lifestyle well if my Cathedral of
cutting-edge tastes holds no interest
for your tragically Canadian
sensibilities then I shall be forced to
grant you a swift exit from the premises
number 10 Oliver Tate Submarine most
people think of themselves as
individuals but there’s no one on the
planet like them this thought motivates
him to get out of bed eat food and walk
around like nothing’s wrong at 15 years
old his character might seem a little
too young to be a hipster but his
sophisticated tastes suggest otherwise I
often imagine how people would react to
my death this film centers on the young
Welsh schoolboy trying to save his
parents marriage while attempting to woo
his classmate Jordana
he does so while looking like a pretty
cool young lad even if he’s not the
coolest in school I often read the
dictionary
I would for today is sluggish as’ which
means wickedly shameful the precocious
youngster goes through his relationship
with a pretty rad mixtape his dad gives
him for the highs and the lows it’s like
he’s trying to get to heaven
the queue was shorter than you thought
it’d be
you need to get this bad
number 9 Annie Hall hi hi hi oh hi
sure this movie came out way before
anyone really knew what a hipster was
and Diane Keaton’s character in
Manhattan was also considered for this
list it’s just I don’t it’s crazy it’s
crazy but Annie Hall arguably helped
define it for movie characters you could
even say she was the first real hipster
in a movie or in anything oh come on
look who’s talking you’ve been seeing a
psychiatrist for 15 years
whether it’s hurt I invest her
transformation into an independent woman
or her nervous romance with Woody Allen
15 years huh oh god bless it all makes
for a character that appeals to hipsters
and movie aficionados alike now then
then I told her about how I didn’t think
you’d ever really take me seriously
because you don’t think that I’m smart
enough number 8
Calvin Weir fields Ruby sparks what’s
this thing even to turned you into a guy
Ruby herself was also considered for
this list but no character in this
quirky romantic comedy is more of a
hipster than Calvin
Paul Dano plays this novelist who
creates his perfect woman a character he
writes that eventually starts actually
existing in the real world outside of
Calvin’s imagination your dog she’s so
cute oh he’s a boy dog
you just peed like a girl
have we met before like many movie
hipsters Calvin thinks that shared
interests are enough fodder for a
successful relationship no no that’s not
wanted someone to talk to in terms of
his style though Calvin’s got the
glasses the hair the attitude and a
manual typewriter to boot making him a
hipster writer extraordinaire don’t look
at me like that number seven Francis
Halliday Francis haw I love you Sophie
even if you love your phone that has
email more than you love me
as this movie’s titular character shifts
from apartment to apartment in both New
York City and other parts of the world
like Paris she also tries to find a
stable job and boyfriend why not just
get one pad what cat needs a buddy you
got one cat you need to get to test I’ll
give you $200 to get no cat Frances
Halliday aspires to become a dancer and
have a successful enough career to pay
her bills I was wondering if there were
any more classes at the school that I
could teach I’m a little I’m kind of
broke Oh while she has to deal with her
best friend slash roommate
moving to Tribeca while she resides in
Brooklyn arguably the hipster capital of
the world
that’s come on Sophie no you’re
and you’re making me feel
really bad right now I want to love him
if you love him but you don’t love him
Frances holidays story goes to show that
sometimes being a hipster isn’t as
colorful as it seems but it is as
unconventional as you think Frances what
do you live second I got a dog yes Baba
can’t get the target number six
Luanne Davis inside Llewyn Davis what
are you doing what but what is that what
are you doing
well it’s Mike’s part don’t do that
through this Coen Brothers film we are
introduced to a beard II broke folk
musician who regularly sleeps on friends
couches and can’t make a sustainable
living off his musical pursuits living
in NYC’s Greenwich Village in the
entertainment business you’re not
supposed to let you practice out
ruins the mystique
but Lewin does what he can to rise above
his reputation as a failure I’ve heard
that new touch starts I checked his
perseverance makes him seem like a hero
despite his cynical sarcastic attitude
and terrible luck what’s your name again
oh no well he may live in a time of
hippies not hipsters but LuAnn Davis
will never hesitate to accuse those who
you know want to earn money and live
comfortable lives of selling out a
classic hipster line if ever we’ve heard
one I don’t see a lot of money here okay
number five Jamie Massey while we’re
young Eisenstein is astonishing I just
watch strike I’m obsessed with Europe
and the 20c portrayed by Adam driver of
HBO’s girls this character arguably fits
the hipster stereotype in terms of looks
interests and general outlook on life
why do you suddenly wanna hang out with
a couple of 25 year olds even if the
film is centred on him and his on-screen
girlfriend a meta cyphers relationship
with an older couple Isaac and then
you’re walking the tracks Oh have you
done this we walk through the subway
tunnels of the d-line last week now with
vinyl records and VHS tapes everywhere
at their house not to mention Jamie’s
tendency to use a vintage typewriter you
could say this aspiring documentary
filmmaker slash member of the band
cookie o’puss
fits the hipster stereotype fairly well
I need to buy a new desk you should come
with me the lumberyard will make one a
whole desk it’s much cheaper than buying
one see number four NIC O’Leary Nick and
Norah’s Infinite Playlist
you off duty this isn’t a cab you’re not
a cab my friend I promise you between
making mixtapes in an attempt to win
back his cheating ex-girlfriend and
being the straight bassist in a queer
core band this native of Hoboken New
Jersey played by Michael Cera instead
bonds with a girl who asks him to be her
boyfriend for five minutes
okay
and is essentially his musical soulmate
I’m the one that got her into it where’s
fluffy Nick isn’t the only hipster
character Sarah has played in his career
look at movies like Scott Pilgrim vs.
the world for reference yeah I guess
would be cool cool people started
wearing our t-shirt but it’s probably
his most explicitly hipster role to date
you know I had a bootleg of black
carnage before anybody else ever heard
it like I think I was the first person
outside of the band ever hear that song
number three Tom Hanson 500 days of
summer want some not champagne I don’t
notice although his eventual
ex-girlfriend summer was also in
contention for this list
it’s our Smith’s loving protagonist who
gets the nod instead Smith thanks in
part to his love of indie music and his
misinterpretation of the movie the
graduate his character portrayed by
Joseph gordon-levitt has a very
unrealistic view on love which carries
over into his relationship with summer
giant sunglasses tattoos handbag little
dogs and cool canvas you see he wants
his love affairs to feel like the lyrics
to that Morrissey song he’s blasting out
of his hipster headphones nothing’s gone
I’m just what which is what no don’t
pull that with me but as he learned
painfully liking the same things isn’t
enough of a foundation for a lasting
relationship
you’re very yeah
it’s crazy huh number 2 William Miller
almost famous it’s a very important
writer he knows Lester Bangs
he was a hipster before hipsters were a
thing the mark of a true hipster do you
smoke no but uh I I grow it based on the
film’s director Cameron Crowe this
aspiring rock journalist gets the
opportunity of a lifetime when he’s
offered the chance to follow up and
coming bands Stillwater on the road
not only that he’s getting paid by
Rolling Stone to write about it after
his sister assures him that one day
he’ll be cool he makes all the right
moves to get there as he grows up I’m
not sure that’s a good idea
opening his mind to new things and
experiences and giving honest and
thoughtful opinions about music
especially early Lou Reed versus the new
stuff hey like the reef the early stuff
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions haefely
wicked tiger
he looks proud I swiped it from his
Rancic’s lon
you don’t even bother showing up for
interviews what is it that you want from
me huh what is it you want me to get a
job on the line for the next 20 years
until I’m granted leave with my
gold-plated watch in my bowls full of
tumors cuz I surrendered the one thing
that means to me yeah it’s not like
I’m some modern Punk dickhead it’s
obviously a 1977 original punk rock look
here must be the couch
I am he
I wonder what that makes me the king
I’m a clown it’s like when you say your
name over and over again in the mirror
and after a while it sounds crazy
so I’m guessing you’ve never been high
before oh the label guys just kept
saying Morlock and low but it’s just so
much better if they’re just skinny and
nerdy like they came in you know number
one Rob Gordon high fidelity did I
listen to pop music because I was
miserable
what were they miserable because I
listen to pop music he may not have a
very good understanding of the opposite
sex but if we’re talking about his taste
in music and culture
he’s undeniably hip all-time top five
most memorable breakups Rob Gordon
obsessively makes top five lists of just
about everything from music to breakups
not to mention he makes mixtapes and
judges people based on their taste sig
sig Sputnik breakbeats Serge Gainsbourg
what do you guys stealing for other
people no those are for us his attitude
might seem snobby but he can back it up
he knows what’s in and isn’t afraid to
share his opinions I get five because
the people make a special effort to shop
here mostly young men who spend all
their time looking for deleted Smith
singles and original not re-released
underlined Frank Zappa plus only a true
hipster would wear sweaters like that
now with only Rob’s expertise in music
carried over into the dating world slept
with somebody else what while she Laura
was pregnant while I was pregnant do you
