Influenced heavily by WHO’S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF, Olivia Wilde’s sharp and funny film turns a simple dinner at home with the neighbors into a pressure cooker of comedic tension. Joe (Seth Rogen) and Angela’s (Olivia Wilde) marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbors (played to perfection by Edward Norton and Penelope Cruz) for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. Have they reignited the spark or lit the match that burns it all down?
“An uproarious, deeply felt and impeccably crafted chamber piece that not only serves as Wilde’s best directorial work to date, but solidifies her as a major talent both in front of and behind the camera.”- The Wrap
