An actors senses are so finely attuned

Handsome: A netflix mystery movie (2017)
Chosen by me as I like Jeff Garlin.


Making an interesting companion piece to yesterdays Girlfriends Day  - another netflix original film, short (about 80 mins), with a pointless mystery (that maybe one of the films jokes as the whole thing is kind of a Columbo spoof) and rambling shaggy dog structure bolstered by great cast (including - again - Natasha Lyonne).
This one is more overtly comedic but lethargically paced and it's odd world not so compelling as the noir tinged greetings card celebrities.
That said, it has it's charming moments, some of the goofy humour hits and it's amiable enough.
Steven Weber is, as ever, terrific.
