This week’s darer: Rachael Legg

Rachael’s dare: “Old Fashioned was filmed in my hometown, and so when I was 15, I became an extra in the film. But when I watched it for the first time at the premiere, I knew that I had been a part of something terrible.  After watching Old Fashioned, I have concluded that Swartzwelder made this movie because he really wanted to write himself as a good Christian man, and then forced an entire cast of actors to comment on his godliness for 115 minutes. Good luck.”

IMDB synopsis: “A reformed frat boy opens an antique store in a college town and falls for the free-spirited girl who moves into the apartment above his shop. In time, this unlikely pair fall into a traditional courtship.”
