So many wedding receptions (and their depictions in movies) have a predictable list of ingredients: speeches, dancing, awkwardness, drunkenness. The one in the Hulu comedy “Palm Springs” includes those things, but with some clever, off-kilter tweaks.
Cristin Milioti plays Sarah, the sister of the bride. And Andy Samberg plays Nyles, a plus-one wedding guest who’s taking a notably different approach to the situation. He gives a surprising (and surprisingly poignant) wedding speech. At key moments, he appears to be directly addressing Sarah, who doesn’t know him. Then he has moves on the dance floor that seem like he himself has choreographed all those around him.
This series of oddities has Sarah, and the audience, wondering exactly what is going on, and shifts this comedy into a different gear. But couched inside the scene is a meet-cute that is as charming as it is weird.
In this video, the director Max Barbakow talks about the ways he leans into the strangeness while also playing the familiar for laughs. Plus, he breaks down that hilarious, and meticulously coordinated wedding dance that just may make you do a double take.

“There can be no right to revolt in this society; no right to demonstrate outside the law, and, in Lincoln’s words, ‘no grievance that is a fit object of redress by mob law’. In a civilized nation no man can excuse his crime against the person or property of another by claiming that he, too, has been a victim of injustice. To tolerate that is to invite anarchy.” — Richard Nixon
The primary political focus of this channel has pivoted decidedly towards the November 3 election. And how couldn’t it? Nothing matters now but that. And it. The CV1984 claptrap is prolix and dutiful and woke heteroclite psephologists are now zeroing attention to address the incomprehensible possibility: a Joe Biden presidency. That simple. And I’ve (again) one focus, scilicet returning the greatest President of my lifetime to office. Join us.
Mother America is under attack ideologically and spiritually by an enemy determined to destroy Her foundation and essential principles. This is an existential fight and as such requires the commitment of a new centurion, a heteroclite truth warrior committed to protecting our constitutional republic. But it’s a new war and anew enemy. Political left and right is dead. Liberal versus conservative might have made since during the Reagan epoch but not now.

Human trafficking involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type of labor or commercial sex act. Every year, millions of men, women, and children are trafficked worldwide – including right here in the United States. It can happen in any community and victims can be any age, race, gender, or nationality. Traffickers might use violence, manipulation, or false promises of well-paying jobs or romantic relationships to lure victims into trafficking situations. [DHS]
