Creative partners in crime and the most fashionable “it” couple I ran into in Park City, Janicza Bravo and Brett Gelman premiered their off-kilter, five year passion project at the Library Center Theater on Day 4 of the fest. Gelman, Judy Greer, Nia Long, Shiri Appleby were joined by fellow crew for the post screening Q&A for the world premiere screening. The comedy was picked up Magnolia shortly after the fest and begins its theatrical release this friday.
