Movie #2171 ........................."International Falls" (Hulu)

 Movie #2171 "International Falls" (Hulu)  This is definitely an "indie" film with mostly talking and not a lot of action --- A comedian on the downside of his career checks into a motel and meets a wanna be comedian just thinking of starting up --- they both use each other for what they need as they spend one day together mostly talking about .....everything, really, and since they are comics, their comments are oftentimes very insightful and glib.  I'd give it a 4.  This was given 100% on rotten tomatoes so far, but it might be because the critics that saw it , loved it, but there aren't that many reviews yet.  (I didn't want to misrepresent the comics; both are not that funny, really, one burned out, and other just starting out -- so not laugh out loud funny, but it has a good ending)

"INTERNATIONAL FALLS"     2019          1 hour and 33 mins         (I'm guessing R)  

A woman stuck in a small, snowbound border town has dreams of doing comedy when she meets a washed up, burned out comedian with dreams of doing anything else.
