Overview
Imagine your life is somewhat complete with a house, job, and wife but then your best friend from college comes knocking at your door at 2 AM. During a pot-induced hedonistic party, a plan is hatched between the two friends to create an Art Film of “two really straight men having sex.” If they only knew how much this would affect all of their lives.
The good: I like that it took a while for the central theme (young adults dealing with the labels they place on their changing lives) to materialize. The bad: there isn’t anything terrible but it pales in comparison to Shelton’s later work. That said, it is rewarding to go back and see the beginning of the relationship between Shelton and Duplass.
