Olivia Cooke
Thomas Mann, Olivia Cooke, & RJ Cyler—
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl
—6/5/2015
[Mann:] It's about the importance of opening up, or letting people in, and making real connections. Even if you're facing rejection, it's ultimately more fulfilling, and you at least can learn something from it...
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015)
A disappointing 'film' but, at least for its target audience of white middle-class teens (and probably their parents), a deeply satisfying 'movie.'
Ready Player One (2018)
Conjures plenty of empty spectacle...but doesn’t underpin it with characters that move beyond the generic or, more crucially, the productively sharp satire that just maybe could have saved this ain’t-it-cool story from itself.
