Tiny Furniture (2010 Lena Dunham & scr)

She also stars, and emulates Woody Allen further by referencing his book 'Without Feathers' several times. Follows the same pattern as other indies, though freshening them by casting her real-life mother (Laurie Simmons, who really is such a photographer / artist) and sister Grace, who you can see plainly cracking up at her sister's blow-out at one point. Whether or not the sex scene in an aluminium pipe references Two For the Road, it is funny - almost reads like having sex in a vagina.

Features fellow Girls actors Alex Karpovsky (as a lying taker) and Jemima Kirke (in familiar role as nutty druggy).

Subtle. Ultimately pulls together through mother's diary. Dunham's shorts on DVD also funny.
