Winner of the 2015 Sundance Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award, ME & EARL & THE DYING GIRL is the story of Greg Gaines, an awkward high school senior whose mom forces him to spend time with Rachel – a girl in his class with whom he hasn’t spoken to since kindergarten – who was just diagnosed with cancer.
Greg Gaines is an awkward, self-deprecating high school student determined to coast through his senior year as anonymously as possible. Avoiding social interactions like the plague, Greg spends most of his time remaking wacky versions of classic movies with his only friend, Earl. Greg’s well-meaning mother intervenes, forcing him to befriend Rachel, a classmate who’s been diagnosed with leukemia. Against his better judgment, Greg concedes. Both Greg and Rachel are surprised—even shocked—to find out that they actually like each other. Tentative at first, this unlikely duo becomes inseparable. But when Rachel gets sicker, Greg’s well-fortified world is changed forever.
Bristling with wit from a clever screenplay by Jesse Andrews, director Alfonso Gomez-Rejon’s second feature is a poignant coming-of-age tale peppered with hilarious graphics and enchanting performances from its mostly young cast. Starring Thomas Mann, whose layered portrayal of Greg could skyrocket his promising career, ME & EARL & THE DYING GIRL will tickle your funny bone and tug at your heart.

Me and Earl and the Dying Girl has those handkerchief moments, but the laughs far outnumber the hard and sad punches. This is a movie that’s grounded in reality, has just enough whimsy and soars to the stars. It’s one of the best films of 2015.
– CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
It’s a fresh, beautiful and heartbreaking achievement that continues to surprise until the very last scene. It’s dangerous to call something an instant classic, but sometimes it’s simply the truth.
– HITFIX
A smart-ass charmer, merciless tearjerker and sincere celebration of teenage creativity.
– HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
Poignant without being melodramatic, overflowing with unforced charm, Me and Earl and the Dying Girl holds a unique appeal that’s certain to last.
– INDIEWIRE
Brimming with wit, crushing last-act melancholia, laughs, and poignant heart, Me And Earl And The Dying Girl is a spectacular delivery of tears, love and laughter, and a beautifully charming, captivating knock-out.
– THE PLAYLIST
This brilliantly funny, casually profound and deeply affecting coming-of-age chronicle, directed by Alfonso Gomez-Rejon from a screenplay by Jesse Andrews, even manages to be life-enlightening—it’s a fresh take on contemporary adolescence as a journey from ironic detachment to openhearted feeling.
– WALL STREET JOURNAL
Blending wit and modesty, Mann fits the bill, coming across as an overgrown kid with a good heart, but virtually no practice in relating to others — which is perhaps the thing that makes his experience so profoundly relatable.
