Olivia Cooke (Ready Player One, Bates Motel) and Jack O'Connell (Unbroken) sit with Reel School for an interview about their independent film #LittleFish. Produced by IFC Films, 'Little Fish' follows the story of two young lovers, Emma (Cooke) and Jude (O'Connell) during a global pandemic. The disease that spreads across the world is one that makes memories start to slowly fade until those who are infected begin to forget everyone around them.
The premise itself sounds like 'Little Fish' will be yet another footnote in the pandemic-trend that will undoubtedly just grow and grow in recent films, but it has a real heart. Lead by these two amazing young actors, Emma & Jude's story is very believable, and the pandemic never seems gimmicky.
We chat about how art has grown to mean so much in these recent months in the real life pandemic, how Cooke and O'Connell continue to survive and thrive in their real lives, and how they created a love story that is sad, sweet and has one clever little twist in it.
LITTLE FISH is now available in select theatres, Digital and Cable VOD!
