Although Happy Christmas doesn’t sound like anything particularly special on its face, the fact it stars Anna Kendrick has to give us hope.
The trailer for the movie is here, so we can all get a taste.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘When Jenny (Anna Kendrick), a hard partying 20-something, moves in with Kelly (Melanie Lynskey), a budding novelist, her film director husband (Joe Swanberg) and their two-year-old son after a break up, the familys idyllic life is shaken. Jenny begins a rocky relationship with their baby sitter-cum-pot dealer (Mark Webber), and she and a friend, Carson (Lena Dunham), bring Kelly to the realization that an evolution in her life, career and relationship is necessary for her happiness. A new comedy from the director of DRINKING BUDDIES.’
Despite the title although as you might expect, it arrives in the US on VOD on June 26th, and in cinemas on July 25th.
