Greener Grass Is the Movie 2019 Needs Right Now

Greener Grass, the debut feature film of comedy duo Jocelyn DeBoer and Dawn Luebbe is a very, very, very refreshing break from almost every norm imaginable. Arguably, amidst a never-ending conveyor belt of film adaptations and sequels, this hysterical, pastel-saturated fever dream is the film, we feel, that we need right now. 

Every inch and every second of Greener Grass, from the color palate, to the shot selection, the pacing, rhythm, perfect crack-in-the-veer performances from the entire cast, and the plethora of golf carts seems so carefully orchestrated, yet done with a rebellious abandon that we happen to really dig. 

We could go on and on with the echoes of David Lynch, Todd Solondz, and so many more influences, but Greener Grass achieves it own offbeat identity that is so charmingly weird, even in its most absurd and tragic moments.

So, go see Greener Grass wherever you can (and push for it to play in wider release if you can).

Mary Holland Lands Series Regular Opposite Rory Scovel in Comedy Central Pilot ‘Robbie’ and Role in Indie Film Soccer Mom Comedy ‘Greener Grass’

Well, America, if you’re not familiar with Mary Holland yet because you haven’t seen her in many of her hysterical roles in several TV shows (Veep and Mr. Neighbor’s House to name a few) over the years or on stage with her fantastic improv group Wild Horses, it would seem like you’re going to thankfully get more acquainted with Holland’s exquisite comedy stylings very soon.

Holland being cast opposite of Rory Scovel in the Comedy Central pilot is just an exciting thing to imagine and, for the movie Greener Grass, we love that Mary’s role is described as, “Kim Ann, a sweet, bubbly, optimist who loves being divorced and wants everyone to know it.”

Obviously, we’re excited to see all of this whenever it comes out.
