‘You Hurt My Feelings’ is a Low-Key Romcom Winner [Capsule]

May 26, 2023 Jordan Ruimy

Nicole Holofcener has built up a strong filmography over her 3-decade filmmaking career. My favorite of hers is still “Lovely and Amazing,” this little indie gem from 2002. She’s back with “You Hurt My Feelings,” a slight but very watchable dissection on modern-day relationships. One thing you can always count on Holofcener to do is never change her style, she’ll stick to her tiny romantic mosaics, filled with comedic bite, and set in NYC. Julia Louis Dreyfus stars as a novelist whose successful marriage is suddenly put into turmoil when she overhears her husband (Tobias Menzies) giving an honest reaction to her latest book. It’s as simple, low-key and ever-so-sweet as it sounds. Not top-tier Holofcener like “Lovely and Amazing” or “Enough Said,” but this’ll do. [B]
