Manic Pixie Dream Girls: A Cinematic Scourge?
NPR has a very entertaining article on a new character archetype, the manic pixie dream girl, “that bubbly, shallow cinematic creature that exists solely in the fevered imaginations of sensitive writer-directors to teach broodingly soulful young men to embrace life and its infinite mysteries and adventures.”
