Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Election (1999): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Easy A (2010), which they were tied to as recast idea for Olive: Election ⇒ Easy A (the host's read). Olive's unbothered, stronger-than-the-bully stance continues the Tracy Flick character through Book Smart's Beanie Feldstein.
    “the Tracy Flick character that we have seen just grow and grow all the way up to like the most recently book smart with Beanie Felsian's character.”

Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Easy A (2010), which they were tied to as recast idea for Olive: Ferris Bueller's Day Off ⇒ Easy A (the maker said so). Director Will Gluck has said Ferris Bueller is his favorite movie, and Olive's Mohawk and guitar bits echo it.
    “I think the director, Will Gluck, has like talked about how Ferris Bueller is, I think, his favorite movie.”

John Hughes: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Easy A (2010), which they were tied to as recast idea for Olive: John Hughes ⇒ Easy A (the host's read). Easy A is in open dialogue with Hughes: Olive says her life is not a John Hughes movie and the finale has a Hughes montage.
    “But also she, like, literally says in the dialogue, my life isn't a John Hughes movie.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Easy A’ With Juliet Litman, Amanda Dobbins, and Shea Serrano · 0:12:55 · Amanda Dobbins (0.70 sure it was them)

One Tree Hill: 1 line

  1. craft (craft) · through Easy A (2010), which they were tied to as recast idea for Olive: One Tree Hill ⇒ Easy A (the host's read). The webcam broadcasting echoes Peyton on One Tree Hill, so there was a precedent.
    “There's 2 pieces of this movie that have strong callbacks to one Tree Hill.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘Easy A’ With Juliet Litman, Amanda Dobbins, and Shea Serrano · 0:47:17 · Juliet Litman (0.60 sure it was them)

The Scarlet Letter (Demi Moore version): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Easy A (2010), which they were tied to as recast idea for Olive: The Scarlet Letter (Demi Moore version) ⇒ Easy A (the host's read). The movie nods to the Scarlet Letter and its puritanical heritage; Olive jokes about watching the Demi Moore version.
    “does its best or at least at times nods to the Scarlet letter and kind of like, you know, the puritanical heritage”

Emma Stone: 1 line

  1. verdict (verdict) · through Easy A (2010), which they were tied to as recast idea for Olive: Easy A ⇒ Emma Stone (the host's read). Easy A isn't Stone's peak, but she doesn't reach it without this movie.
