I didn’t know it was a book until my late teens, when I started working at Borders and found a copy on the shelves. It was a childhood favorite that carried over into adulthood.
Josie's ultimate goal is to become a screenwriter and director, but don't be fooled, they are still pursuing their academic career as well.When I was younger, I, like many others, watched The Neverending Story on more than one occasion. Josie's special talent is the ability to hear a film score and name the movie it's from and/or the person who composed it, even if they've never seen the film before. Josie's favorite movies tend to be horror films, and they are a huge fan of the genre with a few of their favorite franchises being Saw, the Conjurverse, Child's Play, and A Nightmare on Elm Street however, they don't discriminate and are happy to recommend movies and TV shows from any and every genre. Josie also enjoyed playing the scores for their favorite movies on the piano and still has great respect for every element of film-making.
As a kid, Josie could memorize the words to just about every movie they saw and constantly wrote scripts and plays that they would perform with their cousins. Josie's love of both movies and writing started very early. During their time as an undergrad, Josie worked as a writing tutor for college and graduate students. They have a degree in Economics, specialized in pre-law, and minored in both political science and applied mathematics. Josie's writing experience comes from their background in academia. Joséphine Michèle (Josie) is a movie and TV features writer for Screen Rant.
The movie was criticized for being depressing and scary during some scenes, but it has remained a popular contribution to children's films of the 80s, so it’s no surprise that it was referenced in Stranger Things - a show that consistently took inspiration from 80s entertainment. Some considered the homage to be the best scene in Stranger Things season 3, and another theory (via Fandom) suggests that plot points in Stranger Things were revealed by The NeverEnding Story's theme song. The NeverEnding Story was released in 1984 but gained more traction when it was referenced in Stranger Things. While there, Bastian noticed a book called The Neverending Story, and unable to resist, he stole it and spent the day skipping class to read in his school's attic. The movie centered around Bastian, a boy who ran into a book store to escape a group of bullies. In The NeverEnding Story, the titular book created a world called Fantasia using imagination, but a theory suggests that the book put a curse on Bastian and the shop owner for reading it.
