Barbie Ferreira, Devon Bostick, and Chandler Levack all sit down with Kyle Meredith to unpack Mile End Kicks, starting with Ferreira on playing a version of Levack and how stepping into a character rooted in real life meant leaning into the awkward, chaotic reality of your early 20s while also producing the film and bringing her own mix of influences from One Direction to Alanis Morissette; Bostick follows, talking about learning guitar from scratch to play a convincing indie band member, finding himself in the character, and helping capture that specific moment where nobody has it together but everyone’s pretending they might; and Levack ties it all together, explaining how her time as a SPIN critic during the blog rock era turned into a decade-long process of shaping the story, making the lead character more flawed and active, pulling inspiration from Almost Famous and Jagged Little Pill, and recreating a now-vanished music journalism world with the right mix of real songs and original tracks.
