This had a point and nailed it. Nothing but dry completely over the top, 'those' people you may know in a less than functional, paint eating, middle and faux-upper 'modern/arty' society. Oy vey, hurts but no regrets.

Painfully awkward but good
dry humor 100%
This is a great dramedy, in the sense that it actually is very funny and has some emotional moments too. I love the main actor (his work in Fleabag is great, but he's fully on display here). The concept of the film is a little dark, but really gets to the emotional core of being rejected. Love the supporting cast as well - def a recommend for this little-seen gem.
Definitely weird. For those who like weird.
The good: everything is off in this story. It's off on purpose though. The characters, especially one, is quite certain a total weirdo, but the whole story oozes weirdness. Not laugh out loud funny weird, but more of a smirky, quirky kinda weird humor.
More good: what made it also interesting for me to watch, were the terrific (weird) soundtrack and the photography. Both were excellent. The acting is great as well.
The bad: weird characters in weird stories can be interesting, but I always need to feel that the main character is humanlike. That isnt the case though, making it harder for me to sympathize with the leading character, who is a total f90k up and a incredibly blunt and unsympathetic weird guy.
The story: an insecure, middle aged f80k up is desperately trying to be succesful in acting and directing. He is terrible at both though. He is a terrible person as well. Just totally unsympathetic. Wanna watch 1 hour and 15 minutes of a weird obnoxious dude?
Recommended only for those arthouse movie fans, who like weird...
