“They were all very different, but they were united,” Jason added. “It works and is a great way to show how people who struggle with these things have to cope… I think we can all relate to these different characters.”

Jason added: “I think it’s a good film that ages well and tells storylines that are important to women.”

“It was almost nostalgic,” Travis said. “I love watching films from the early 2000s, ’90s and childhood because it’s almost like you can imagine yourself in that era of life. And then the cinematography and the way people dress and things like that – you can go there.” Going back to that part of your life, we grew up in middle school and high school at the same time.

However, Travis made one final suggestion – that a male-led version of the film be made.

“Have you ever done that?” Brotherhood of the Traveling Jockstrap“Or something?” he asked.
