A Quote by Finn Wolfhard

I grew up on particular movies that said something to me as a kid from Missouri, movies that showed me places I'd yet traveled, or different cultures, or explained something, or said something in a better way than I could ever say.

I've always been quite careful about what I wanted to do. I've just never wanted to revisit old ground or do something that's easy.
