How to Lose Friends & Alienate People

How to Lose Friends & Alienate People
Brace yourselves, America.
It's so hard to keep my eyes on the stage...

This movie is inspired by the real-life experiences of Toby Young. Young was a British writer who hopped across the pond to write about celebrities for Vanity Fair magazine (renamed in the movie). He was raucous and outrageous, and secretly hated the people and culture he was writing about. Apart from the tempestuous relationship with his boss, he also tried hitting on a hot young co-worker, while the only person who cut him some slack was another young woman who turned out to be a more suitable partner.


110 minutes, No persons under 16 (Language, Nudity)
