BioThis is a role playing journal. My PB and the movie 'The Lookout' have nothing to do with this site. I mean no harm by having it. Icons are by ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)

Chris is about five-foot-ten with brown hair and brown eyes. He has a nice smile, but probably doesn't use it often enough. His blank stare isn't personal: sometimes, it's just difficult to recall that he's supposed to have an expression on his face. If he looks lost, he probably is. Chris tries not to draw attention to himself when he needs help, and is frustrated and sometimes mildly aggressive as a result. He wouldn't hurt anyone - unless they're actively threatening someone. He keeps fit and though has taken up skating again, he doesn't play hockey anymore.
And below are major spoilers for the movie, right down to every detail in the 'Long Form'. I didn't write either one, but they both sum it up far better than I could. I'd just be reinventing the wheel to try and write my own summary. Credited.
About the movie: the Short Form...
The movie came out in 2007, and the accident happened four years before that, which would be 2003. Chris was a senior in high school. When the journal was started, I had him a year after the events of the film, which would make him 23.

While driving with his headlights off down a country highway, Chris Pratt (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), his girlfriend Kelly (Laura Vandervoort) and two friends crash into a stalled combine on the road. Chris and Kelly survive, but the other two do not. Chris' injuries include brain damage that affects his short-term memory. To compensate for his inability to remember, he keeps notes in a small notebook. He lives with a blind friend named Lewis (Jeff Daniels) who also aids him.
Resulting from his mental incapacitation, he is unable to have meaningful work. Thus he works as a night cleaning man in a small-town bank. It is there he comes under the scrutiny of a gang planning to rob the bank. The leader, Gary (Matthew Goode), befriends him and uses a young woman, Luvlee (Isla Fisher), to seduce him. Confused, but wanting to escape his current existence, he initially goes along with the scheme. After realizing he is being used, he attempts to stop the robbery, which immediately goes awry.
A sheriff's deputy (Sergio Di Zio) stumbles into the robbery while delivering doughnuts to Chris. Guns are fired and the deputy and two gang members (Marty (Morgan Kelly) and Cork (Aaron Berg)) are killed. Gary is wounded and one other bank robber, Bone (Greg Dunham), survives. Chris escapes in the car which contains the money they stole; he buries it near where his accident occurred. As this is happening, the robbers kidnap Lewis to get the money back. The robbers and Chris meet to exchange the money for Lewis, but they force him to take them to the site of the buried cash.
While Chris digs in the snow to retrieve the money, Gary's health is rapidly deteriorating. Chris gives one of two bags to Bone, who then prepares to execute Lewis. Chris shoots Bone with a shotgun he'd hidden in one money bag. At the same time, Gary collapses and dies from loss of blood. Chris returns the money and turns himself in. An investigation by the FBI concludes that Chris could not have pulled off the robbery, by himself, due to his mental state — confirmed by video surveillance of the robbery.
The film concludes with Chris and Lewis opening a restaurant financed by the manager of the bank.
The Long Form can be found under a cut in his journal.
