Paper Heart - it's confusing. It's set up as a documentary about the comedienne/musician/general oddball Charlyne Yi [sic] trying to find love and eventually doing so with the actor Michael Cera.

And...some of the interviews with real-life couples about love are really sweet and poignant.

But then...it's a mockumentary. And the acting between these two is as wooden and awkward as is acceptable with other such popular 'indie' flicks (about as independent and quirky as marmalade). It just seems to be a giant in-joke between all the Diablo Cody/Judd Apatow brigade, albeit with the best and funniest stars removed from the picture. The plot is so predictable, and the main actress is...I don't know where to start.

Like, she's socially awkward to say the least. But that doesn't automatically make you funny - it makes you awkward. She CAN be quite sweet. But most of the time she has this really irritating voice and generally seems quite slow. And I don't give a ****ing crap about the people who're like "well that's part of her appeal" - NO. Comedians and comediennes are SUPPOSED to be charismatic and confident and able to cope with public pressure and the stage/performance. Being awkward and weird for the ****ing sake of it stopped being funny with Noel Fielding.
