Mr. Milchick is in this.
Sweethearts is exactly what it you think it will be: a college rom-com-dram that's a notch better than other straight-to-streaming rom-com-dram's because it has Kiernan Shipka, and she is good.
No offense to the primary plot, but the side plot is much better. Palmer, their high school friend, is planning his Coming Out Party and ends up on a side quest with the school's gay football coach (Mr. Milchick from Severance) and his boyfriend. This part is funnier, sweeter, and more memorable.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A charming comedy about two best friends navigating the messy collision of growing up, growing apart, and the chaos of one alcohol-fueled night home for Thanksgiving. It captures the awkward hilarity of trying to adult while stuck between who you were and who you're becoming.
