If you took a bit of the story of Orange County, then set it in Inglewood, add some shine for 90s hip hop and a drug dealer twist, then it looks like you have something around the neighborhood of Dope.

Rick Famuyiwa’s Dope follows a straight laced, straight A kid who is trying to get into the best college he can and also, simultaneously, live up to the title of the movie.

The journey, according to this trailer, looks like it’ll be a jovial ride tinged with the nostalgia of hip from two decades ago. It certainly struck a chord with the Sundance crowd earlier this year as it sold at the festival.

FYI, Dope comes out June 19th.

DC Pierson is seeking to adapt his novel The Boy Who Couldn’t Sleep And Never Had To along with his team Dan Eckman and Meggie McFadden into a feature length film. In the quest to do so, he has made this nice short film as a proof-of-concept to show how great a film of his book following a kid discovering that he can make things in a comic book appear in real life can be.

You might notice that that’s Tony Revolori, Zero from The Grand Budapest Hotel, and Jack Quaid in a short that could double as a pretty great teaser.

So, Internet, do what you do best and let the word spread and, hopefully, the powers that be will take note and make a full fledged movie.
