The Freebie centers on Darren (Shepard) and Annie (Aselton), a young married couple with an enviable relationship built on love trust and communication. Darren and Annie still enjoy each other’s company and laugh at each other’s jokes, but, unfortunately, they can’t remember the last time they had sex. When a dinner party conversation leads to an honest discussion about the state of their love life, and when a sexy bikini photo shoot leads to crossword puzzles instead of sex, they begin to flirt with a way to spice things up. The deal: one night of freedom, no strings attached, no questions asked. Could a freebie be the cure for their ailing sex life? And will they go through with it? With a keen eye and fresh take, Aselton’s directorial debut shines with crisp storytelling and fine-tuned performances. THE Freebie is an insightful and humorous look at love, sustaining relationships , and the awkwardness of monogamy when the haze of lust has faded.
A zone of resiliency. It’s ok to not be fine. Laugh or cry, there will be someone who wants to try to have the appropriate reaction.
采访里非演员孩子的叙述，其分量是片子本身无法承受的。电影的轻快和随性托举不起生活在真实世界之下孩子们面临的种种问题，从而让采访片段和情节本身脱节了
天！好温柔的片子太打动人了！感觉自己既是大人又是小孩
PS:我突然想到，其实我们小时候还是有很多深刻的思想，长大了只想在刑法里找孔子赚快钱了 哈哈哈哈哈
3.5，自然但缺乏流动感，黑白摄影不错，如果有同题纪录片应该比这个好看。
“that's beautiful”
A two-hour long warm hug/tranquility in nothingness
“生活在一个安静的环境里是很重要的，你能明白吗？你们这代人已经失去了这种宁静。”
整个过程看得我抓耳挠腮恨不得进去打熊孩子一顿，完全惯坏了
于是又重新把影片过了一遍
3.5，一碗来自a24的温馨鸡汤。没有教不好的小朋友，只有不愿用心教育的家长。原先在摄影机/录音设备后负责纪录的“影人”反客为主，成为了叙事的主体，这个想法挺有意思的。可能是之前太迷《小丑》了，现在只要看到杰昆一抱双臂，一做鬼脸，就觉得他还在演Arthur…
你问我，你会忘记这一切吗？我说，你会忘记这一切。你看上去又生气又不解。所以我打算把这一切都录下来，作为对你的提醒。
我们也许通过别人发现自己，也通过自省发现自己。come on，come on
很多时候我也缺少了这种宁静
8.1/通过叔叔与侄子的短暂相处来重新审视语言与情感，而电影通过纪录片与记叙片的切换来重审倾听/表述的重要性 - 短信/阅读/电话/对话/采访 - 去了解自己和他人最好的方式。电影通过slow pan & slow zoom & melancholic music & black and white来艺术化的表现可能却徒增了一些不必要的boredom。
中规中矩的话唠性成长类家庭和解类电影。不太懂为什么要搞黑白，油腻的华金加油嘴滑舌早熟boy的组合也挺好玩的。但没有什么特别的地方，just funny
话太密了 孩子总有一个阶段如此招人讨厌又自以为是 但又真挚纯真
it's ok you are not fine。如果这部纪录片真的拍出来了我一定会看的，提问真的很有意思。8/10

一开始，我想掐死这个讨厌的小孩。然后可能我们都喜欢他了吧，彼此驯服彼此接纳，与人共度时光多么有魔力啊。
