The Back of Her Head
Josh Safdie made this assured comedy in and around his apartment building when he was still a film student at Boston University. The dioramic setup plays like a vertical REAR WINDOW: a shy daydreamer (played by Safdie) lives above an older Hindi man who lives above a reckless Brit who lives above a girl...Start your free trial to watch

I'm not really sure if there was a point.
Some humorous moments. Maybe a more fleshed out idea to tie these events together would help the film be stronger.
I really enjoyed that a lot. It didn't bow down to the traditional plot, the usual arc of problems. It's just a very realistic interesting set of dynamics between quirky people I'd never have a chance to sort of get to know otherwise.

Slightly better than the other two films I've seen by these brothers, but still wasn't interesting or funny.
Not the funniest or the most interesting of the John films, but worth a look.
