We Really Like Her: CROSSROADS - 20th Anniversary
Event Information
About this event
In honour of its 20th anniversary (!!) and the recent freeing (!!!) of one Miss Britney Jean Spears, We Really Like Her! co-hosts Emily and Danita invite you to an encore screening of Crossroads (2002), complete with a pre-show sing-along!
In this truly underrated vehicle for the legendary pop icon, former friends Lucy, Kit and Mimi (Spears, Zoe Saldana and Taryn Manning) reunite for a last-minute, post-graduation trip to California. While their initial goal is to get the pregnant Mimi to an audition, the trio ends up reconnecting while on the road, making pit-stops for late-night talks, karaoke, snacks and even a little romance.
Crossroads and its star did not deserve the blind hate they got back in 2002 (and often still get today). Directed by Tamra Davis (Billy Madison, Half Baked) and written by Shonda Rhimes (Grey's Anatomy, How to Get Away with Murder), the film is an ode to the healing power of pop music and friendship that isn’t afraid to confront issues that continue to affect young women including (content warning): sexual assault and rape, body image, internalized misogyny, and parental abuse.
