Summary When you graduate college you easily sashay into the world of adulthood, start a career, and get serious, right? Wrong. Marnie has left college, but not her drinking habits and her bad taste in bad men. What's more, Marnie can't seem to find a permanent job. It would be sad if it weren't so funny. (Goodbye Cruel Releasing)

As David Rakoff once wrote, "Youth isn't wasted on the young. It is perpetrated on the young." Exactly how is brilliantly captured by Andrew Bujalski in his debut feature, Funny Ha Ha.

Bujalski celebrates the awkwardness of twentysomething life, allowing Dollenmayer to create a beautifully authentic portrait.

The kind of film that you just don't want to end.
By Eric Campos FULL REVIEW

A beautifully observant and wholly unpretentious film with roots more in Cassavetes than Sundance-style showbiz.
By Robert Koehler FULL REVIEW

Andrew Bujalski's refreshingly modest look at life in the directionless netherworld between college and career is the rare film that finds its story in the minor contradictions and simple conflicts of ordinary people doing, well, not exactly nothing, but nothing important.

Bujalski has a knack for the genuine moment.
