The One I Love 2014

Our Take (by Richard)

Elisabeth Moss is in it. Calling The One I Love a romantic-comedy, looking it up, or trusting anyone else about it — especially my review, will ruin this film for you. Just watch it. If one’s penchant is typically opposed to titles with ‘love’ in them, then it’s for you. Just hit ‘play’, or ‘start’, or whatever. The initial wtf-ness that attracted me to it is compelled further by excellent acting. And Elisabeth Moss is in it.

Notable Critics

"Although it arrives in the guise of mind-bending sci-fi, The One I Love is a fairly conventional dark comedy of jealousy and emasculation. It's a very enjoyable one, though."

— David Edelstein

"The set-up, reminiscent of some of Hitchcock's films, works like a well-oiled stopwatch: once the situation starts, it cannot be stopped."

— Sheila O'Malley

Synopsis

Comments

  1. Great movie and great cast of just Elizabeth Moss, Mark Duplass, and Ted Danson. They story keeps you curious and engaged the whole time. Has some twists and a unique storyline.

  2. The One I Love stars Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss as a couple who have problems connecting. At the suggestion of their therapist, they go to a secluded house to work on their relationship. It is a simple plot that keeps you engaged and is only 90 minutes. And it comes with a creepy twist. Definitely worth a watch.
