What the hell’s this movie about, anyway?


Well, we'll tell ya.

And do you have to swear? Seriously . . .

Here's a little bit about the plot. We included some pictures, so it's kind of like a picture-book. Sort of.

 

cAveMan20 is typing . . . takes place over the course of a spring semester at a state college,


and as the cold weather turns to warm,


we witness the missteps of our two main characters, Richie and Wes, both sophomores
who are making initial attempts at romantic relationships and, at a surface level, failing.

For Richie, he is obsessed with a girl named Rosalind. He is a nice guy destined to finish left, and tragically unaware of it.

For Wes, he is in his first relationship with a girl named Meredith, but it's at a point in which much of the chemistry has worn off.

Richie thinks he can win Rosalind like it’s done in the movies, with grand confessions of his love, and he thinks not having his own apartment is what’s stopping her from liking him.  He thinks the overt flirtations of Emily, Rosalind’s roommate, are genuine, but perhaps they are not, and he finds himself increasingly associating with Emily instead of Rosalind. 


Wes, at the movie’s start, tells Richie that he will change his relationship with Meredith.  But since he is unable to properly articulate his thoughts even to Richie, it is no surprise that, a few scenes later, when he tells Meredith that the relationship is “stagnant,” he has no clue how to right the ship.  His solution is to run away, which is a tactic that Wes takes in all areas of his life.
