While, from the looks of it, the film appears to be mostly funny, it also has some serious moments where we learn about the characters and their true feelings deep down. It’s a mix of comedy and emotional moments, making audiences feel connected to the characters. With Dakota Johnson in the lead role, there’s no doubt that she’s going to uplift the entire aura around the film. While the will do an excellent job at exploring self-discovery and one’s sexuality, it will also touch upon less-discussed issues of initial anxiety about coming out. On a lighter note, it seems to also show how valuable and special female friendships really are.

Notaro and Allynne, a real-life married couple, are making their directorial debuts with this feature film, with a script penned by Lauren Pomerantz. The movie is being backed by Johnson, Notaro, Allynne, Pomerantz, Jessica Elbaum, Will Ferrell, Erik Feig, Lucy Kitada, and Ro Donnelly.
