The Tribeca Film Festival is always good for star spotting, both at their special events and in their cinema slate. With the fest wrapping up this weekend, it seemed a good time to share my impressions of the fests highs and lows through the most bonkers moments of its many celebs.
Jason Sudeikis teaches the world how to fingerbang with the help of an apple juice bottle.
As follow-up to her blistering black comedy Bachelorette, writer-director Leslye Headland tries her hand at romantic comedy on Sleeping with Other People. Sudeikis co-stars with Alison Brie as a promiscuous New York singles who form actual feelings for each other while resisting their shared desire to bang. The premise is a bit lame, but Headland’s cast—which also boasts Adam Scott, Natasha Lyonne, Amanda Peet, and the scene-stealing duo of Andrea Savage and Jason Mantzoukas—keeps things lively and hilarious.
Arnold Schwarzenegger acts!
Adam Scott and Jason Schwartzman get naked.
The Overnight is swinging sex comedy out of Sundance that starts with a kiddie playdate, which leads into post-bedtime antics that are decidedly just for adults. Scott and Orange is the New Black’s Taylor Schilling play a pair of parents eager to befriend Schwartzman and his onscreen wife Judith Godrèche. But when dinner leads to flirtations leads to skinny dipping, things go from suburban to scandalous. And we’re cool with that.
Oscar Isaac sports teeny pastel pink Speedos while espousing on the triviality of the internet.
Much like he delighted us with deranged dancing in Ex Machina, Isaac delivers a deliciously devilish madman in Mojave.
Written and directed by The Departed’s scribe William Monahan, this LA noir centers on as a movie star (Garret Hedlund) so filled with ennui that he treks deep into the desert to drink and mope alone.But there he begins a ponderous game of cat and mouse with a Shakespeare-spouting psycho (Isaac). The drama is pompous and uneven, but Isaac does a brilliant job with Monahan’s mastabatory monologues, lacing their pretension with the kind of animalistic sex appeal TFF founder Robert De Niro once oozed in Cape Fear.
Adam Driver sneaks a baby bits of ham in a church.
Adam Pally goes from King Dork to King Dirtbag.
Michael Fassbender and Ben Mendelsohn get loopy on absinthe.
Lake Bell steals a blind date.
