Me And You And Everyone We Know.

Me And You And Everyone We Know.

In my opinion, this is a film that expresses through its plot and cinematography the awkwardness of human beings in relationships,as it tries to expose our inability to engage or act in a certain level of intimacy without some kind of filter or barrier. These "barriers", are what I think Miranda July places the most focus on in her film, as throughout the movie they can be noted, such as the importance of technology,shown through the innocent but almost obsessive relationship between Robby and the person of the chat room, and the importance of the "intangible", such as a persons opinion, which is heavily shown through the two girls and peter, and even Richard and Andrew.
In the beginning of the film the first thing the viewer interacts with is the image of what appears to be a man and woman looking out at a beautiful sunset at the beach; a romantic setting, with a romantic dialogue, or monologue as we realize when the movie progresses to the introduction of the main character in the most awkward way imaginable, just an example of the way the movie takes advantage of what is typically perceived and shows it in an uncomfortable yet still generic way.
