A Little Film About Friendship

I think home is supposed to give a feeling of overall contentedness, that feeling of “this is where I’m supposed to be”, whatever factors may make that up. I’ve been grappling with what home means to me recently, as I’ve had to come to terms with the fact that what I always thought of as home has been the furthest thing from it. I’ve had to venture out into the unknown to search for home for myself and it’s hard not to feel like a stray dog sometimes, too afraid to take up space in the world like anybody else would. I hope home comes to me soon and I hope you find a place that feels like home too Joel, this was a lovely little film 🙂 your cinematography is always such a standout!

Simple and mundane, but beautiful and profound at the same time. So wholesome

I have no friends. What if you weren't legally allowed to view this film unless you had friends?

23:30 best part

Spend a week in Sioux Falls, SD and I guarantee you won't complain about living in LA ever again.

43:40 is the craziest part of this movie for me because I also try to get the whole peel in one peel and recently my friend and I were eating some together and she wasn't doing that and I had completely forgotten that's not something people normally do so I was briefly shocked by that. And just before I started watching the movie I had some oranges and thought of that moment. What's even more shocking is how Joel mentions eating the whole apple later and that's ALSO something I do. I don't eat the seeds tho lol

i dont really enjoy being an adult, especially being disabled means what perks i should have as an adult i dont even get so i just wish i could be a kid again when everything was simple calm and safe

I’m in a run of bad days and I’ve just been hoping for normal days, but it’s hopeful to be reminded I’ll have good days again, too. Thanks for the movie, Joel, Trent, & co ❤️

Trent and Joel just have the healthiest bromance and I love to see it

Great movie. It felt good to see something like this

40:39 you know who else makes five year plans? communists. and look where it got them.

I don't know where I was going with that.

I just got back from a four day trip with my best friend. He's been in a mental health therapy place for a couple years now, so leaving him back in the city is always really hard. We're both little nature hippies and need to be in the woods. I get really scared about his mental health when he's in the city. The scene where you start talking about your anxiety could have just been ripped from our past few days together, almost word for word. We're planning a commune together, and I'm starting to think it might actually happen, some pieces have really fallen into place.

Anyways. Joel, your movies always speak to me at different times in really profound ways. Tonight it was this one. I was just sitting up really worrying about my best friend and really really missing him a lot, and this one just made me feel like I was still with him, and that there are more people like us out there.

My best friend and I are both probably at a low 40% as far as where we want to be in life, but we're getting there. We're working towards making big changes so we don't have to be so distant. Friendships are balm to the soul and it's so wonderful to watch something that shows that in such a subtle and caring way between you and Trent.

Love you guys. Always appreciate your willingness to share your hearts like this.

Thanks.

Joel never got into what he didn't like about LA. Kinda weird to make a whole long scene about it and not explain it at all.

This movie went insanostyle, for real the part were you guys start talking about "home" and all the nuance and factors around it, it felt like having the thoughts I have in my head materialize as I'm struggling to figure out what's gonna be my home too or if there really even is a place out there to call home. Being from a small town I'm gonna have to end up chosing between being closer with family or closer with friends or sometimes I just think I just need to start fresh somewhere out there and make that home for myself. Who knows it's a constant struggle and battle inside my head and that conversation just felt so damn real, I guess because it is…

Wow. 2 pee boys.

Me, watching this and not having friends: 🥲

Happy birthday Jull!

A classic Joel and Trent video!

I'm watching second time today. Second time is even better, means that is a really good movie.

Jesus you're talented Joel

35:10 only in L.A. for 3 years and you have this much of a community!? Unreal. Been here 14 years and I have NO friends / NO life.

I need a feature length film about Maurice, Christopher and Gregory.
