After college graduation, Grover's girlfriend Jane tells him she's moving to Prague to study writing. Grover declines to accompany her, deciding instead to move in with several friends, all of whom can't quite work up the inertia to escape their university's pull. Nobody wants to make any big decisions that would radically alter his life, yet none of them wants to end up like Chet, the professional student who tends bar and is in his tenth year of university studies.

This is such an amazing directorial debut in my view. Almost want to give it 4 stars. It makes me feel so many things. The second half really elevates it from an almost spoof-level comedy to one of the most heartfelt coming-of-age films I can think of. It also helps that I relate to Grover so damn much. Having a bartender lowkey be the 'guru' character in a film for lost 22-year-old boys is perfect.

Amusing satire but never quite "haha funny". I liked how the characters were like parodies of characters out of a Bret Easton Ellis novel, as a way to address the pervasive misogyny, narcissism, and overall toxicity among yuppies in the '80s-90s. I wish I had watched it when it came out. Quite ahead of its time.

That last scene is one of the sweetest things I've ever watched in a movie ever. I couldn't stop repeating it. :heartbeat:
