In a unique hybrid of fratboy-esque raunch and Cassavetes-style naturalism, One Too Many Mornings, fresh from its premiere at the 2010 Sundance fest, is a coming-of-age comedy about two dudes who are way too old to be coming of age. Fischer, a twentysomething layabout who lives for free in a Pacific Palisades church, is surprised to find estranged childhood friend Peter, who's run away from a longtime girlfriend, on his doorstep. As the boys drink, party and waste their days away, Fischer turns a blind eye to Peter's growing depression -- until Peter's girlfriend becomes the next to show up unexpectedly. Director Michael Mohan acutely explores the nuances of friendship and responsibility and keeps it charming, while the crisp B&W cinematography provides a smart counterpoint. The acting is great, the characters are real, and the story’s challenge asks you personally -- this is your life; what are you gonna do about it? Join us for a cast & crew Q&A after the screening!
Dir. Michael Mohan, 2010, digital presentation, 90 min.
