The Color Wheel

2011 siblings comedy

Rating: 14/20

Plot: Siblings go on a road trip to pick up stuff from the sister's ex-boyfriend's place.

Once again, interest in a current release inspires me to check out a director's work. This time, it's Alex Ross Perry. The Color Wheel features unlikable characters, unrealistic dialogue, and an unsavory twist. It's lo-fi, scratchy beauty from people who just want to make a movie, but I found it very easy to like. I'm not sure everybody will, and I know not everybody is going to like the final shot, one that features a door.
