I loved this movie from the very beginning.
I relate to Todd's OCD and germophobia and I relate to Rory's career situations. I think this movie is a must watch for aspiring actors in Los Angeles.
There was so much chemistry between James and Katie (Todd and Rory) that it really felt like they were so perfect for each other.
I also loved the cinematography with those symmetrical shots that recalled Todd's OCD.
It's an unusual dramedy that personally gave me good vibes because it was very relaxing but entertaining and interesting at the same time.
I don't really rewatch movies but I would definitely watch this again.
I'm just not too sure I got the ending, but maybe giving an ambiguous sort of open ending was exactly the point (?).
9/10
P.s. I can really see how in the past James Sweeney worked on such an unusual movie like "Anomalisa" and Katie Findlay was the girlfriend in the tv show "Man Seeking Woman". They both fit this movie's vibes perfectly.
