low budget .. hippie love movie..
afterdarkpak22 July 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Somehow kinda good movie, with some decent performance...

plot is also not that strong but its simple . a painter is new in town looking to start a new life ? . stays with hippie friends who are engaged in orgies or spiritual indian crap. then she found a place to work , and she bangs the owner and start to living with him because she doesnt have place .

then both starting have feeling to each other, until they both got serious and then tragedy hit them when her good friend told her that she was unfaithful n cheater in past (this point movie become stupid because it didnt mention that how was her past about cheating and why she was soo different or distant about loving the guy in start ).

but anyhow.. in the end.. its like happy ending..

Funny but uneven rom com
roger-99-17159912 July 2020
A funny look at modern relationship and trying out in a different city, this smart yet uneven rom com falls short on its expectations. Despite the charming and convincing actors, the artistry harmonious atmosphere and colorful visuals, it suffers from repetitive and conventional dialogue. The crowd of "spiritualists" experiencing mysterious intimate acts in the house the protagonist shares with a friend becomes more interesting than the romance she develops with a bon vivant. At least they are awkwardly funny. While trying to accomplish her professional goals in California, she deeply invests on a romantic adventure. Entertaining but too shy to fly higher.

One conclusion from the movie
Dar Star5 June 2022
Women are awful people. That's pretty much the only thought that comes to mind after watching this which is strange since it was directed by a woman. Anyways it's watchable. Some decent dialogue while the horny star lead jumps into one bed after the other.

Disgusting.
ctt-6493624 August 2022
Why would you make a comedy movie based off an actual mental illness that people commit suicide and suffer over? Take this movie down, extremely cruel to people who actually suffer over what Limerence actually is. It's nothing to joke about.

Minoff is a genius
sjanders-864307 April 2021
Terry Minoff wrote it, directed, and is the main character. Her best friend is Billy Brown. She is a painter who gets her art in a gallery in Venice, California.

She does an abstract painting of herself. When Tom, boyfriend and fiance, asked her what part of herself was the painting. She answers you. So Tom is a part of herself. I agree. When we are intimate with someone, they will always be part of us. Everyone we have ever known like or dislike is a part of us. Even more astounding is that our cells have memory of people who have been in our lives. Physically our cells recall a person from years back. I had my back to someone I had known intimately 40 years before. With my back to him my body started buzzing with knowledge of someone I had known. Before my eyes saw him my body knew him. So Minoff is right that he is a part of her that will never go away. Her cells will remember him. Our cells remember so they are part of us forever. Astounding. I loved this film. Minoff is inspiring.

Don't Miss This Movie!
suzesuzesuze3 April 2020
Finally, a romantic comedy that veers off the traditional path. Heartfelt performances by a superb cast. Be prepared to laugh but don't forget your tissues (and popcorn!).

A sophisticated romantic comedy with surprising depth, this is everything I look for in a movie.

I was hooked from beginning to end. A very funny, yet deep look into our relationships. What are you waiting for, watch it!
