Magic Hour
MAGIC HOUR begins with phone-filmed footage of Erin (Katie Aselton) lovingly goading her partner, Charlie (Daveed Diggs), to get on a Ferris Wheel. Some indeterminate time after that outing, the couple arrives at the Joshua Tree desert home of their dear friend, Marshall (Brad Garrett), who gently tells Erin that he hopes the stay in his home will help them heal from their (unspoken) issues. It's clear that something is wrong between Erin and Charlie and that they're both mired in an overwhelming sense of loss that they're processing in different ways. About 20 minutes into the film, the source of their pain is revealed, and the rest of the drama explores the transformative nature of grief.
