Violet is Oliver's dream girl, that high school student. Oliver's older brother, Jack, will make a romantic relationship but has not been lucky to have a real relationship with the girl of his dreams as well. When Jack returns home he will soon discover that the girl whose heart has been broken is the same as Oliver. From here begins an exciting comedy.
Both Wolffs are pretty charismatic and funny. Their rat-a-tat dialogue seems largely improvised (either that or Draper is particularly adept at teen humor) and undoubtedly reflective of a warm sibling relationship.
This effective indie dramedy unravels a bit in the end as it eagerly attempts to wrap up each and every one of its conflicts, but before then it's a rowdy, touching, keenly observed slice of life.
Draper uses her understanding of her sons as people and actors to shape their characters and performances. In return, the trust they have in her allows them to be completely open.
