Popkin ’11 these kinds of questions in order to prepare her for her role in his most recent film, “Fell in Love with a Dead Boy.” The film, which will be screened this Saturday in the Carpenter Center, focuses on the experience of a young woman who loses her vision as she develops an obsession with John F.
