Adam Scott and Taylor Schilling Star in Racy Comedy The Overnight

Posted on April 29, 2015

The first trailer has dropped for the racy comedy The Overnight in which a hipster couple shows another married couple just how weird pizza parties in Los Angeles can be. Alex (Adam Scott) and Emily (Taylor Schilling) are a married couple from Seattle who has just moved to Los Angeles.

They don't know anyone in town. They take their young son to the playground where they meet a friendly father named Kurt (Jason Schwartzman). He invites Alex and Emily to his home for a welcome to L.A. pizza party.

They agree since their kids seem to hit it off. Kurt's house is amazing and his wife Charlotte (Judith Godrèche) is gorgeous. Dinner is perfectly normal and enjoyable. Then Kurt suggests that he let the kids go to sleep upstairs while the grownups stay and talk a while longer. Kurt is a kind of child whisperer and gets the kids to sleep.

Then things get weird. With the kids out of the way everyone loosens up a bit. Kurt and Charlotte seem like swingers to Alex and Emily, who are awed by the house. They don't want to seem provincial, so they stick around. There is skinny dipping, the ingesting of various substances and lots of self revelation. But how will it all end?

The film was a hit at Sundance where Schwartzman and Scott endlessly answered questions about the creative use of prosthetics by the males stars of the film. The film was written and directed by Patrick Brice. Take a look:
