Somebody

About This Movie

Somebody is this quirky little gem directed by Miranda July, blending humor with a kind of raw honesty about human connection. The premise revolves around a messaging app that takes a sort of indirect approach to communication—sending someone to say what you can’t. It’s kinda awkward, kinda brilliant, and the pacing is deliberate, allowing the absurdity of the situations to unfold naturally. July’s unique voice comes through in the performances, almost like a dance of emotions. The film explores themes of love, vulnerability, and the weirdness of social interactions, all wrapped up in a whimsical but thoughtful atmosphere. It’s definitely not everyone’s cup of tea but carries a certain charm that makes it stand out.

Unique premise on communication · Quirky humor with emotional depth · Distinctive directorial style of Miranda July
