Our 5th entry in our ‘type of guy’ series. The Manic Pixie Dream Girl archetype and real life people are examined in our breakdown of Elizabethtown, The Garden State, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, 500 Days of Summer, and Scott Pilgrim vs the World.

A quirky, independent free spirit that is fun and does exist in real life (good)
