Elizabeth Olsen has given her two cents and two thumbs up to Fifty Shades of Grey , the best-selling erotic drama by E.L. James that has been the subject of a flurry of Twitter and blog posts over the summer over who will (or should) be cast in the lead roles. But the Martha Marcy May Marlene star who is currently filming Very Good Girls and has a couple of other projects in post-production said that the novel is “kind of great” for helping its female base to embrace fantasies and to openly discuss their sexuality. “It’s had a huge impact on society.
