The Appointment

About This Movie

The Appointment is this quirky little comedy that dances on the edge of absurdity with a light touch. The film revolves around two lovers caught in a web of infidelity, and the tension builds as they are unwittingly spied on. It has a sort of offbeat charm, enhanced by the setting of a hotel room that feels claustrophobic yet intimate. The pacing is definitely a throwback to early seventies narrative style, leaning into those awkward moments that make you chuckle. Performances are a mixed bag—some really land that comedic tone while others feel a tad over the top, but that’s part of the film’s unique vibe. Overall, it’s a snapshot of relational comedy that can feel refreshingly raw.

The Appointment has had a narrow distribution history, with most collectors often hunting for those rare VHS tapes or obscure DVDs. It's not widely available so it adds this layer of intrigue for those who appreciate early seventies cinema. Collector interest tends to spike due to its unique premise and the oddball nature of its comedic approach, making it a conversation starter among enthusiasts of the genre.
