Previously seen stoned in Knocked Up, sometime stand-up Charlyne Yi has never been in love.
So in this playful quasi-documentary she hauls a camera crew on the road to interview people about capital-R Romance.
Along the way, she chats to Seth Rogen – but more importantly, she meets Michael Cera who, in typical Cera-speak, “pretty much” pairs up with Yi. Is she really going out with him?
Who knows, but Yi is a unique tour guide, her deadpan demeanour, embarrassed giggle and horn-rimmed specs generating non-starry appeal.
Not all of the subtexts hold weight (especially the one involving media intrusion), while hard-nosed viewers might find the Yi-designed puppet-show interludes too cute by half. But even they will probably warm to the true-love confessionals from bikers, Elvis lookalikes, gay couples and long-term spouses.
And if truth, lies and ambiguities start to merge into a tricky tangle – well, isn’t love a bit like that?
