Project Hail Mary vs. The Intern: Theory Of Objectivity

Two movies about unlikely friendships and learning from people different than yourself — it's Project Hail Mary vs. The Intern.

Project Hail Mary and The Intern couldn't look more different on paper, but both are stories about unlikely friendships that work because two very different people are willing to learn from each other. Emily unpacks how Ryan Gosling's sci-fi survival story and Anne Hathaway's workplace comedy share a surprisingly emotional core about humility, connection, and showing up for someone who didn't ask for your help.
