- TriviaJessica's wall of rejection letters also features a diploma from Carnegie Mellon University.
- GoofsWhen Jessica is talking to Damon on the street (piano scene), the medium shot of them in profile shows their shadows parallel to the sidewalk. In the close-up shots of Jessica and Damon, the shadows are at about 45º to the sidewalk. This can be seen in shadows of the trees behind Jessica and of the shadows of Damon's head on his body.

Featured review
This is one of back to back Netflix films I've watched. This is from one of the best directors, but he has not done many films or with big stars, big projects. I've liked all his films, but this one was an average. There's nothing wrong in performances or in writing, directing and production. It's just not so fresh. I felt it trying to be another 'Frances Ha'. For a movie goer like me, this is quite okay film, but for regular people, it could do better.
The story of a young woman who just broke up, but focusing more than ever on her dream to be a play writer. In the meantime, she meets another man who recently divorced. Her lifestyle, best friend, all things that's happening around her revealed with some fun. The film was not that great, but surely not a boring film. The dream/imagination sequences spoiled my watch. Because it only brought a false hope. I thought those scenes were better than how the real story progressed. That says, sometimes cliches are okay than being plain. It did not work, but I still suggest to go for it if you are interested. No one should ignore it, only because I did not enjoy it!
4/10
