Noted fanfiction scribe and Delaware teen Angelina Meehan and I had a very similar middle school existence. As latchkey kids with access to the internet, we both filmed our own movie reenactments, we both covered our bodies in Bath & Body Works roll on glitter, and we were both very much in love with Ewan McGregor. Cinemablend praises him as "our nakedest actor," but Angelina was charmed by his boyish, puppydog cuteness. She also attributes many foundational aspects of her personality to things she learned from watching movies that Ewan starred in.
In this conversation, we examine the "very horny id of a [teenage] girl," how to make peace with watching inappropriate movies, and the benefits of early internet access.
