Melding the influence of the women’s movement with a scrappy indie ethos, Claudia Weill’s debut feature is a quietly influential, wonderfully frank and funny study of female friendship in which Susan Weinblatt (Mayron), a photographer struggling to make it in New York City, finds herself learning to live on her own when her best friend and roommate (Skinner) abruptly moves out. Among this unsung gem’s most ardent admirers: none other than Stanley Kubrick.
