One of Greta Gerwig's first movies is this "mumblecore" picture also featuring Mark Duplass. Very loosely structured film that seems to rely heavily on improv. Could have been technically executed a bit better. Like actually attempting lighting and proper use of a microphone. Also, could have spent more time on a script. Some scenes drag quite a bit. But ultimately I think it basically works, Gerwig has lots of charm. The rough-hewn style fits into a DIY aesthetic seen in other artforms today.
