Not a bang, but not a whimper either: Zoe Lister-Jones' 'How It Ends' is an L.A. journey through a woman's unfinished business before the apocalypse.
Filmmakers Daryl Wein and Zoe Lister-Jones discuss the apocalypse comedy starring Lister-Jones, Cailee Spaeny, Lamorne Morris and Helen Hunt.
Mostly, the film rides on the chemistry between Lister-Jones and Spaeny. Lister-Jones, with her cynicism and too-cool-for-schoolishness, convincingly portrays someone hobbled by the safety of low expectations. The very watchable Spaeny has the energy and openness Adult Liza killed off to survive but never comes off as exhausting. She’s not playing anof youth; she’s playing Liza at a younger age but with knowledge of her older version’s missteps.
“How It Ends” works both as an alternative to the usual, race-against-time or humanity-sucks apocalypse dramas, and as a personal exploration of settling affairs — and it’s a comedy.
