If you loved The Ref, try Beautiful Girls
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

What Beautiful Girls is
A group of friends in a snowy Massachusetts town drink their way through life’s slow-burn milestones. Late-night talks, aimless chatter, and half-hearted flirtations keep them circling the same old questions. It’s a movie that mistakes stasis for sincerity.
