A struggling New York writer, his alopecia-suffering best friend, and his (not really a) cousin find their love lives complicated by, respectively, a lost orphan, a persistent, picture-taking co-worker, and a potential move to Los Angeles, in Radnor’s promising directorial debut, though somewhat less promising writing debut, which benefits from an assured visual touch and some likable performances, but suffers from an overly whimsical plot and some awkward dialogue.
