Sam Rockwell is so funny. I love how all the threads of the story come together, but mostly I just love Sam Rockwell.
When this came out, I didn't like it. I must have been half asleep or something. I had a toddler; it happens.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A darkly comic fever dream where a struggling writer's life spirals into chaos after his chaotic friends kidnap a gangster's dog, all while the film itself becomes a meta-commentary on storytelling, violence, and loyalty. Wildly inventive and anarchic, it never settles into predictability.
