Description

Few actors have captured Gen-X's  grungy combo of ironic charm and misanthropic frustration better than John Cusack...or so MG argues with tonight's double feature! First up, Cameron Crowe's directorial debut Say Anything navigates a surprisingly subtle transition from goofy 80's high school comedy to thoughtful, realistic relationship drama; then our second feature, Stephen Frears' High Fidelity, gets even more real, following Cusack as an embittered burnout trying to figure out his trainwreck of a life! Join MG as we identify all-too-closely!
