Brief Interviews with Hideous Men

Her boyfriend has left, and Sara (Julianne Nicholson), a doctoral candidate in anthropology, cannot work out why. She starts sitting down with men and asking them to talk about themselves, including Subject #11 (Will Arnett) and Subject #40 (Bobby Cannavale). John Krasinski, in his first film as director, adapts David Foster Wallace's stories, and Sara keeps listening, hoping one of them will account for what happened to her.
