SYNOPSIS: When you graduate college you easily sashay into the world of adulthood, start a career, and get serious, right? Wrong. Marnie has left college, but not her drinking habits and her bad taste in bad men. What’s more, Marnie can’t seem to find a permanent job. It would be sad if it weren’t so funny.

Director Bio: Andrew Bujalski
Andrew Bujalski’s first feature film, Funny Ha Ha, was released theatrically in the summer of 2005 by Goodbye Cruel Releasing and is available on DVD. A.O. Scott of The New York Times was kind enough to include it in his Top 10 Films of 2005 list and Dennis Lim of The New York Times followed up with a feature on Andrew and both his films. Funny Ha Ha's long road towards distribution actually landed it the unique honor of making a Top 10 Film list in 3 years: in 2005, 2004 by Film Comment and Cinemaspeak, and 2003 by The Boston Phoenix.
At the 2004 Independent Spirit Awards, Bujalski won the “Someone to Watch” award. The Boston Globe describes him as “unerringly polite and somewhat disheveled.” He types 89 wpm. |
