If you loved Our Idiot Brother, try Juliet, Naked
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
Both films are directed by Jesse Peretz, and they sit in Comedy / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Our Idiot Brother, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Juliet, Naked is
Annie’s boyfriend worships a has-been indie rocker so obscure his unreleased demos still sell. A leaked acetate of Tucker Crowe’s long-lost song upends two stalled lives and sends a midwest archivist chasing ghosts. The film finally lands somewhere between motivational poster and Spotify playlist.
