Shithouse (2020)

Shithouse: Directed by Cooper Raiff. With Cooper Raiff, Dylan Gelula, Amy Landecker, Logan Miller. A lonely college freshman forges a strong connection with his resident assistant during a fraternity party.

“This is a great debut for the writer/director. Naturalistic, realistic college love story that many people will resonate with. If you like the earlier work of Linklater and Charlie Kaufman, I think you will enjoy this. Donu0026#39;t expect the poetry or beauty of those directors, but you may see similar existential themes from anxious main characters. The acting from Raiff and Landecker was spot on, there are no melodramatic or romance tropes, itu0026#39;s just about young people trying to find their way with several genuinely funny scenes. My criticism was potentially the ending of the film that seemed a bit disjointed and hurried. Interesting to see what Raiff does next.”
