Review of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl (2015) by Ben D — 04 Jul 2015
This is a movie for people who love movies. That's not to say it's only for people who love movies, but this director clearly has an affinity for film and it shows. There are nice little references to classic movies all throughout and I had fun trying to notice them.
Now for those who don't know tons about film, they're still left with a funny, sweet, and emotional film about someone trying to make a girl with leukemia feel happy. It made me laugh and it made me sad and I had a pretty great time with it.
The only real issue I have is the undeniable resemblance to The Fault in Our Stars. I can't say more than that without spoiling the film, but for those who have seen both movies, you know what I'm talking about.
Other than that, pretty great movie.
