SLEEPING WITH OTHER PEOPLE

Director Leslye Headland / 2015 / USA

Alison Brie and Jason Sudeikis trade barbs and masturbation tips in this snappy, subversive, modern rom-com.

In When Harry Met Sally, Harry Burns professed that "men and women can't be friends because the sex part always gets in the way." In New York, two malcontents are perfectly poised to test the theory.

After taking each other's virginity in college, Lainey (Brie) and Jake (Sudeikis) have a surprise reunion 12 years later at – where else? – a sex-addicts meeting. He might be an emotionally crippled Lothario and she might be a cheater who holds a blazing torch for a former lover, but who says they can't have each other's back (if not the booty)?

Natasha Lyonne, Jason Mantzoukas, Amanda Peet and Adam Scott help spice up this randy and utterly romantic second feature from writer/director Leslye Headland (Bachelorette).
