Easy A was not only a hilarious movie, but gave us all a brand new role model. Here are the 14 reasons we desperately need to be friends with Olive Penderghast, played by Emma Stone.
The film became a quick classic, easily fitting in with the ’80s John Hughes films that it cleverly emulates. And just like in The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, it was the characters that immediately won us over.
Olive Penderghast was sassy, intelligent, hilarious, and had the coolest on screen family we have seen in a long time. So can you blame us for watching Easy A and wishing “Wow, if only Olive was real.”
Easy A was a breakout role for Emma Stone, who has gone on to star in Crazy Stupid Love, The Help and The Amazing Spider-Man. But let’s go back to the start, and remember exactly what it was about Emma Stone’s portrayal of Olive Penderghast that made us all think “I need to be friends with that girl.”
