Hollister and O’Toole take a look at this year’s Sundance favorite (winning both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award): the quirky and moving "Me and Earl and the Dying Girl". Novel and screenplay by Jesse Andrews. Starring Thomas Mann, RJ Cyler, and Olivia Cooke. Co-starring Connie Britton, Nick Offerman (“Parks and Recreation”) and Molly Shannon.
Directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon (“Glee”) – who said movies like "Harold and Maude" served as inspiration. “It’s that school of filmmaking — nothing too slick. One false note and it becomes sentimental… inauthentic.”
Here’s your chance to re-live high school – without being seen.
