This is awesome!
I guess one Coen is enough too.
Although I hear one was more about writing, and the other about directing, just don't know which is which.


Why?

Awful music, stupid obnoxious comedy, annoying fast paced editing for comedic effect, and at 0:34 wtf is that....looks ad-libbed and again the music is atrocious.
that's one hell of a way to make sure people won't watch it

this is giving me Burn after Reading vibes which I also did not enjoy, also Margaret Qualley forced southern accent way over the top

Perhaps trying a bit too hard being 'quirky', with out of place 60s style trippy intermissions throughout, but otherwise, once you get used to its tone, is very amusing and interesting to follow, with plenty of unusual fun scenes. Plus I haven't seen a full-fledged lesbian movie in a while, where it's not just a background 'feature' for kicks and points.
It's very short though, by today's standards, and almost all best scenes were partially shown in the trailer.
I'd like a Blu-ray of it though.

P.S. 'Real' title is revealed in the end. It's not Dolls. :D
