One of those movies where you know in the first five minutes it's going to be a masterpiece,, Eggers is going yard before the title card even drops.
an ongoing joke I have with friends is that I hate horny movies. Untrue!! This is exactly my kind of horny movie. I just don't want a movie that celebrates horniness as some kind of sexy, fun thing. I want it to be unsettling! Sex isn't cool it's awkward and gross and…

REALLY LIKED THIS MOVIE
Super interesting and fun, the movie is weird but not for weird's sake, it's weird but accessible
