Our take

Newly restored, this heartfelt gem is “mumblecore” filmmaker Andrew Bujalski’s follow-up to the cult favorite Funny Ha Ha. With characters who are at their most honest when struggling to find the right words, it’s a funny and observant slice-of-life story shot in beautifully colorful 16mm.
