Synopsis
Living with a roommate can be murder.

It doesn’t have my beloved “reading old microfiche at the library” scene but it DOES have another classic, the “looking through the box of old photos and newspaper clippings to discover someone’s twisted backstory” scene

Review by nathaxnne [hiatus <3] ★★★★★ 9
Blue shadows, immersive and shallow, orange and dusty rose afterglow, unstructured blazers, kimono sleepwear, the upper floors, the cornices and balustrades and decorative columns, the cardigans and the duplicates, the databases and the sexual harassment, the cut-outs and the hidden documents, the threatening phone calls and the bas-relief lions. How many roommates have you had? What references can you provide? A central stairwell which descends all the way to hell, then keeps going down.

Review by Sean Fennessey ★★★ 1
This and Pacific Heights feature the two greatest “I’m a sociopath and all the evidence of my family trauma can be found in a box I’ve kept featuring newspaper clippings that detail why I’m nuts” sequences. An effective expository device that was satirized so well by Jordan Peele with Allison Williams’ Polaroid Box ‘O Boyfriends in Get Out. This is fun, slick trash with two terrific lead performances and enough blue light to power a precinct.

Review by Sally Jane Black 7
The pain of loneliness can drive us to many extremes. The agony of do I love her or do I want to be her is really just "I wish I were lovable" wrapped up in the melange of sexuality and gender and romance and isolation that is created by a world that tells us success is digital individualism. Before its time in some ways, of its time in so many others, and outside reality for the most part.
(In the end, the answer is to rely on your gay friends to save you.)
