Welcome to our NOT A HORROR MOVIE series! Today we take a look at Tuck Everlasting (2002)
THERE WAS A CHANGE OF PLANS. WE WERE GOING TO DO ZONE OF INTEREST, BUT SUNNI HAD A CHANGE OF HEART AT THE LAT MINUTE, SO WE DID THIS INSTEAD.
A perfectly normal teenage girl meets a perfectly immortal teenage boy and immediately decides that sneaking off into the woods with him is totally reasonable behavior. What follows is a dreamy, syrup-drenched morality tale about love, time, and why drinking from mysterious woodland springs is almost always a terrible life choice. The Tuck family does their best to explain that eternal life is actually kind of a logistical nightmare... imagine paying taxes forever. In the end, it’s a gentle, bittersweet fantasy that asks the big question: is immortality worth it if you still have to deal with your relatives for all eternity?
