Endings, Beginnings - Ricomincio da te

"Endings, Beginnings" is a spare story of a woman, Daphne, who appears to have no career or job, and seems adrift in her personal life after a break-up. She does a lot of party- and club-hopping in LA, and meets two hot dudes who happen to be close friends. This triangle gets messy when she falls into a sexual relationship with both of them. One is the classic bad boy who owes people money, smokes pot, but is great in bed. The other is a more serious academic and writer who offers the prospect of a deeper relationship, but she seems to find him less "exciting." Even though he's very cool and good-looking!

The shaky camera work, abrupt cuts, dreamy lighting and lack of dialogue or structured plot make this seem like a music video more than a feature film. Stan and Woodley have some raunchy sex scenes, and you can see why she finds him irresistible, but this is fairly shallow fare due to the direction and writing.
