So, 'Novelette is Trying' seems to be one of those character-driven pieces that explore the messy intricacies of modern relationships. The film dives into the life of this cynical, anti-social woman navigating her new reality post-breakup. The chemistry—or lack thereof—between her and the extroverted roommate, Audre, is striking. It's this odd juxtaposition that makes it worth discussing, I think. You’ve got themes of vulnerability and unexpected companionship playing out against the backdrop of East Vancouver's landscape, which feels almost like a character itself. The pacing has this almost erratic ebb and flow, reflecting Novelette's own emotional chaos. It feels like a fresh take on the roommate genre, ya know? It’s gritty but with moments of levity that keep it balanced.
'Novelette is Trying' is relatively obscure at this point, which might pique collector interest. The absence of a known director adds to its charm, making it a hidden gem waiting to be uncovered. Not much in terms of physical media yet, but if it gains traction, that could change, so keeping an eye on any potential limited releases might be wise. The themes explored could resonate with niche audiences, possibly leading to a dedicated following as word spreads.
