Pitch Perfect is a 2012 musical comedy film directed by Jason Moore. The screenplay was written by Kay Cannon, based on a book by Mickey Rapkin. The story follows an all-girls a cappella group who rebuild so they can
make their way to the championship and take on the boys. This leads to a
competition, and new girl Becca is determined to revamp the set-list so that it includes music that's more up-to-date.
Director: Jason Moore
Writers: Kay Cannon (screenplay), Mickey Rapkin (book)
Stars: Anna Kendrick, Brittany Snow and Rebel Wilson
Beca (Anna Kendrick) is that girl who'd rather listen to what's coming
out of her headphones than what's coming out of you. Arriving at her new
college, she finds herself not right for any clique but somehow is
muscled into one that she never would have picked on her own: alongside
mean girls, sweet girls and weird girls whose only thing in common is
how good they sound when they sing together, in the new out-loud comedy
Pitch Perfect. When Beca takes this acoustic singing group out of their
world of traditional
arrangements and perfect harmonies into all-new mash-ups, they fight to
climb their way to the top of the cutthroat world of college a cappella.
This could wind up either the coolest thing they'll ever do or the most
insane, and it will probably be a little of both.
