IN THE QUEUE

Currently at home:  The Freebie.  Watched it last night.  Funny, dark, sad, sexy, mysterious, and very short.  Katie Aselton (who wrote/directed/starred) is a major talent and Dax Shepard really surprised me with his dramatic abilities.  The mostly improvised script felt very real and raw and honest, and the central idea for the film (can a married couple take a one night break from each other and sleep with someone else and still make it work?) is definitely provocative.  It needed to be a bit longer but overall it was very enjoyable.
