Comedian Mike Birbiglia writes & directs Don't Think Twice, a surprisingly moving bittersweet coming-of-age drama.
It follows a New York City improv comedy troupe, all closing in to age 40, as they reach the fork in road of make it or break it.
It's a painfully honest portrayal of life outside of comedy and the difficult choices one must make once you've realized you're youthful dreams aren't actually materializing. It hits some predictable notes but it's the incredibly comfortable cast that keeps the delivery fresh and unexpected. Everybody involved both in front and behind the camera know their place and it all comes together in a neat little package that is hard not to like.
