The beauty of genre fiction boils down to its malleability, not just in possibility, but in the possibilities within the possibility; in the fantasy genre alone, we have the likes of high fantasy, dark fantasy, fairy tales, and even magic realism, depending on where one’s mind can go with it all.
And such beauty looks set to take center stage when The School for Good and Evil, the Paul Feig-directed film adaptation of the popular young adult fantasy novels of the same name, flutters into Netflix this October. The film follows the daunting plight of best friends Sophie and Agatha; the former a charming young lady who seems destined to become a princess, the latter more of an outcast that gets labeled as a witch. The girls soon find themselves kidnapped by the headmaster of the School for Good and Evil, a duality of institutions where students are molded into heroes and villains, and are ultimately trained to keep the world’s good and evil energies in balance.
