Smart screenplay, dirty dialogue, set in the 90s and reminiscent of our own awkward high school experience: The To Do List was made for us and it’s HI-LAR-I-OUS. We like it so much, we’re celebrating it with two contests. Let’s all watch Brandy get her first F!
Loosely inspired by the real-life adventures of first-time writer/director Maggie Carey, The To Do List is a heartfelt comedy about close friends and a special summer project. Set in 1993, valedictorian Brandy Klark (Aubrey Plaza) wants to shed her uptight image before college, so she assembles a to do list of all the “activities” (wink, nudge) she missed out on in high school. Quickly realizing that she’s way out of her depth, Brandy solicits her best friends, older sister (Rachel Bilson) and burnt-out boss (Bill Hader) for their help and advice.
Inspired by Brandy, we created our own Summer To-Do list of slightly more… wholesome… activities. Read on to see how you could win our dream summer!
