Overview
The chronicles of four years in the life of Julie, a young woman who navigates the troubled waters of her love life and struggles to find her career path, leading her to take a realistic look at who she really is.
One of the things that I love about this movie is that it doesn’t imply that any of the leads are necessarily the worst person in the world. Of course the title itself is an exaggeration as there is no worst person in the world. I think what the movie does so well is show that at different times we all (intentionally or not!) put our worst foot forward. I’ve dated people that thought I was the greatest guy in the world and others that would hang up if I called. The film asks us to think about the very nature of relationships. What do we owe the other person?
