I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore

Macon Blair's I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore is an adroitly askew indie comedy. Melanie Lynskey stars as a woman who has been trod upon too many times. When a burglar victimizes her, she snaps out of her complacency. She teams with a nun chuck wielding neighbor, Ellijah Wood, but their attempts at vigilantism lands them in dire straits. The supporting cast is superb, particularly Christine Woods as a bored trophy wife. Fans of the Cohen brothers and David O. Russell should check it out. ((4/18/22)
