If you've watched enough movies, you start to become familiar with the Cliche's associated with certain types of people. You know, all those movie character stereotypes like the competitive soccer mom, the kind-hearted cop or the fat best friend. They can be tiresome, but when called out and identified, they're actually pretty funny. Rory Turnbull, an assistant linguistics professor in Hawaii (according to his Twitter bio) tweeted a movie trope about his profession that nailed the stereotype so hard the tweet went totally viral.

Ever since the beginning of time, things have been exactly the same. Boys wear pink, girls wear blue. Boys wear dresses, and girls can't. 13-Year-Old Ella Fields decided to create a short film, "Stereo", in which gender roles are reversed in order to show 'stereotypes are meaningless'. The film was written, directed, and edited by Fields as part of an assignment from the Cinematic Arts Academy at Millikan Middle School in Los Angeles.
