An Evening with Beverly Luff Linn

Director
Jim Hosking
Certificate
15
Running Time
108 mins

Billed as “a story of love, theft, athletic swimming, and a magical magical event”, Jim Hosking’s follow-up to the, erm, idiosyncratic The Greasy Strangler stars Aubrey Plaza as dissatisfied Lulu Danger, who’s just been fired by her own husband  Shane (Emile Hirsch). Then she sees a TV commercial for An Evening With Beverly Luff Linn For One Magical Night Only, which reveals a mysterious man from her past (Craig Robinson).

What happens neaxt? Here’s the official synopsis: “When Shane and his bumbling cohorts steal the cashbox from Lulu’s adopted vegan brother Adjay, specialist Colin (Jemaine Clement) enters the fray to retrieve the stolen funds. But Lulu seizes the opportunity to run off in search of her mystery man—and events only become stranger from there.”
