Duplex

“Alex and Nancy finally found their dream home...and then they moved in.”

Alex Rose (Ben Stiller) and Nancy Kendricks (Drew Barrymore) buy a duplex in Brooklyn and move in, a writer and a magazine editor ready to start their life together. Upstairs lives Mrs. Connelly (Eileen Essell), a sweet old woman whose rent-controlled tenancy comes with the place and whose hours do not match theirs. Danny DeVito plays it as a slow squeeze, with the two of them stuck under her feet and the walls feeling closer each day.
