Easy Living (2017)

Easy Living: Directed by Adam Keleman. With Caroline Dhavernas, McCaleb Burnett, Elizabeth Marvel, Charlie Hofheimer. Sherry, a self-destructive makeup saleswoman, hopes a new man and business venture will provide her a fresh start. After her plans are foiled, she takes control of her life in a dramatic turn of events.

“A truly excellent character study, anchored by strong, believable performances and nuanced writing. Sherryu0026#39;s struggle with getting herself onto the ladder that she has until now ignored, and the existential despair that entails, is easy to relate to. The director (Adam Keleman) imbues the proceedings with a touch of absurdity, just enough to make it feel as if the universe is aligned against her. And a jarring final act initially seems out of place until it fits squarely into Sherryu0026#39;s path towards self-actualization. A tiny gem.”
