ReleaseThe film premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival on 24 January 2020.[1] ReceptionTara McNara of Common Sense Media rated the film 3 stars out of 5 and called the film "authentically awkward". She praised Liebling's performance, and wrote that he "delivers every look and line with a naturalness."[2] Sylvie Baggett of Bust wrote that the film has a "naive sweetness", and that it is "as awkward and charming as first love itself."[3] Kristen Yoonsoo Kim of The New York Times wrote that while the characters have a few "nice, even revelatory scenes that combine humor and pain", their "dominant mode of interaction by the movie’s end seems to be silence, just as it was at the beginning, and we never do get to know Marvin or Stanley very well."[4] Brian Shaer of Film Threat gave the film a score of 7/10 and wrote that the film is "so well-intentioned that it’s tough to single out the negative."[5] References
