Happy Endings

Happy Endings (2005)

Lisa Kudrow, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Laura Dern and Jason Ritter star in this unusual comedy, written and directed by Don Roos, that gathers a series of connected vignettes about the randomness of love and life. A documentary filmmaker threatens to reveal a woman's long-held secret; a father and his son find out that they're both seeing the same woman; a gay man discovers his partner may (or may not) be the father of their friend's baby; and more.

My Two Cents: Genuinely funny film; floats between its intersections in search of title outcome. Mostly avoids "convenience"

NetFlix Rank: Really Liked It
