Diablo Cody

Friday, September 18, 2009

In the new movie "Jennifer's Body" a demonic high school cheerleader devours her male classmates. It's a horror movie with a comedic post-feminist twist. Its screenwriter, Diablo Cody, won an Oscar for 2007's "Juno," but she says this horror project was her dream script. She tells Kurt about the importance of "Heathers" and "Poltergeist" to a girl growing up in the '80s.

Fantastic interview! Thank you Kurt and thank you Diablo Cody! I was grateful to hear the plight of another person plagued by writer's block -- but is that like being happy to find a sugar addict to join you at House of Pies?

I appreciate both of your work so much.

Many thanks for the hours of enjoyment!
