If you loved Benny & Joon, try Friday
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Benny & Joon, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Friday is
South Central Los Angeles, Friday afternoon, ice clinking in glasses. Two friends lounging on a porch, surrounded by lazy summer air, waiting for something to happen. F Gary Gray brings a laid-back vibe to this coming-of-age comedy.
