#PowerBallad star #PaulRudd on the draw of a #JohnCarney film:⁠
⁠
"I just want to feel fucking hopeful, and the thing I love about John Carney’s films is that you come away from them, like, ‘God, that was a really emotional ride and it moved me.’ But there’s also joy in it, and I’m seeking that out more now than ever before because of the crushing weight of everything else that is so overwhelmingly shitty."⁠
