More pop-culture evidence of a shift in generational priorities: the movie Holly. Xer icon Ron Livingston has gone, in the space of less than a decade, from the “It’s not that I’m lazy, it’s that I just don’t care” of Office Space to caring very much indeed, maybe too much for his own good, in Holly, as a slacker American abroad in Cambodia who finds himself unable to not try to save a child prostitute from the horrible life ahead of her.
I find that shift fascinating...
(I interviewed Ron recently; read some of that here. [There’s more to come, including his thoughts on the phenomenon of Office Space.] And more on Holly is here.)
