From acclaimed filmmaker Nicole Holofcener comes a sharply observed comedy — “You Hurt My Feelings” — about a novelist (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) whose long-standing marriage is suddenly upended when she overhears her husband (Tobias Menzies) give his honest reaction to her latest book.
“You Hurt My Feelings” is a film about trust, lies, and the things we say to the people we love most.
Over the past three decades, Nicole Holofcener has made comedies that explore the complicated, awkward, hilarious dilemmas of adult relationships in the modern world, often drawing from personal experiences. With “You Hurt My Feelings” she taps into a particularly tricky question: where does one draw the line between honesty and validation as a partner, a parent, a sibling?
