I have to say that I was not going to watch this, but I figure that if they were comparing it to Sex and the city, why not give 35 minutes of my life to it. I have to say it was cute, but not SATC-esque and the girls, not cute, at all. Maybe one of them.
We center around the main girl Hannah (Lena Dunham), who is sitting at dinner with her parents. We find out that she lives with her roommate in Brooklyn and has been working for 2 years at an unpaid internship (they don't really even do that anymore!). Her parents tell her that they are cutting her off and she needs to get a real job. She tells them how she could be into crack or something worse and how her friend Sophie had two abortions and she is not like that. That was actually hysterical and amusing. She tells them she doesn't want to see them anymore and heads off.
Back at her apartment, we find her asleep with her roommate Marnie, so I thought she was a lesbian. They fell asleep together and are woken up by Marnie's boyfriend Charlie. Marnie is actually one of the prettier ones. She doesn't even like Charlie. She tells Hannah she wants to break it off with him. Hannah has a bath with Marnie too, while eating a cupcake. Weird.
Across the river, we find cousin Jessa, worldly British girl, who is going to live with her cousin, Shoshanna. She lives in her studio for $2100 a month. She is so bubbly and funny and says OMG and all these other crazy catchphrases, she reminds me of a college kid still. Did I ever talk like that? Wears a pink Juicy sweatsuit and has a poster of SATC on her wall. Jessa does not know who they are, never seen the show, is not on facebook, is just too cool for school. I don't like her character at all.
Hannah goes to her internship, where she is an aspiring writer. She tells her boss that she needs to get paid and he basically fires her. Tells her that the Asian girl got promoted because she knows photoshop. She leaves and is in a bad mood. She goes to some guy's house and he is lanky, skinny and not cute either. He invites her in. They have some weird sex scene, where he tries to have anal sex with her and then does it doggy style with her. They are done and she leaves. She is really late for the dinner with Jessa.
At the apartment, Jessa is there and Hannah shows up late. Charlie invited his friend and girlfriend there and she is annoying. Hannah shows up, hugs Jessa and they decide to try some opium, flower pot. Hannah takes it, spits it up, thinking they said it tastes like twix, but it really tastes like twigs. She decides to see her parents high. Marnie confronts Jessa for being a bitch and finds out that Jessa is pregnant, not on purpose.
Hannah goes to her parents hotel, tells them to read her short stories and they love it but wont give her the money. The mother wants a lake house, so she doesn't give in. Hannah faints and wakes up in the bed with no parents. She tries to order room service, but the account is closed. She finds her stories and about $60 or so.
Will this help her live? What did you think? Would she be Carrie?
