Dir. James Sweeney USA 100 min R
2025 Roadside Attractions
Writer-director-star James Sweeney, in his sophomore feature, unpacks loneliness and friendship and how the two can often become entwined despite one seemingly being the antidote to the other. Delivering a particularly striking dual performance from Dylan O'Brien and Sweeney, the film is a delight to behold.
Roman (Dylan O'Brien) and Dennis (James Sweeney) both search for solace and an identity without their other halves and soon become inseparable outside of their twin support group. But when Roman meets Dennis’ ebullient co-worker, Marcie (Aisling Franciosi), all is revealed to be not what it seems, as each man harbors secrets that could unravel everything.

"James Sweeney’s tightrope-mastering mix of genres and tones is an incredibly effective feat, veering from funny to creepy to devastatingly sad." –The Guardian
