College life is the most memorable and significant phase of one’s life. You make friends, discover your interests, make enemies, find love, and even take your academic knowledge a step further. Your successful college life paves your way for a bright future. There are numerous Hollywood films and shows that give the audience insight into college life. Many of these series/films have one thing in common – rivalry between two colleges.
Be it in sports or academic or cultural programs, both the colleges thrive on being the best. Jason Moore’s 2012 directorial venture Pitch Perfect is one of these shows. Initially released as a film series, it was renewed as a television series in September 2021, with Elizabeth Banks taking charge as the producer.
