(Re) Encounters

16: Easy A - a (Re)Encounter


Listen Later

After the brief switch-up from the last episode, our two hosts are back with another slight change to the usual format, albeit a familiar one. On this episode, Sam and Boris will be discussing a film - a relatively famous film at that - which Sam hadn't seen before, Easy A from 2010. The duo discuss the longevity of the American high school film and how Easy A expanded upon this established film tradition and advanced it into the 2010s, as well as the star potential of one Emma Stone and the improbability of her passing off as a 17-year old. They also comment on the film's slightly uneven two halves and the importance of well-used cameos and references. Nothing says autumn like a back to school film so dig out those John Hughes VHSes and CDs, but only after you've listened to Sam and Boris' takes on Easy A
