Josh and Emily are in a relationship, but he can be inattentive and unromantic and she can shift her focus from small things to emotional issues in a moment. He invites her to drive from New York City to somewhere in Virginia to pick up a chair that he's bought on eBay for his father's birthday. On the way, he stops at his brother Rhett's, outside Philly, and invites him along. Josh tries to save money at a motel, has to negotiate with the seller of the chair and with an upholsterer, and faces tough questions from Emily. He calls her "Dude," he's moody, and it looks as if the relationship will end soon. Is there more than meets the eye here? How do people decide?

Movie Reviews

Metromix.com - 10/10 by Matt PaisAn aching, understated treasure that vividly captures two people who just aren't clicking anymore. The movie is so small you could fit it in your pocket, and so real it hurts.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 10/10 by Bill WhiteRipe with characters and events reflecting the psychic travails of today's young adults.
L.A. Weekly - 9/10 by Scott FoundasThe Puffy Chair is the funniest, saddest and most emotionally honest "romantic comedy" to come along in years, even if I've yet to encounter many over the age of about 35 who like the film, or even get it.
Austin Chronicle - 9/10 by Kimberley JonesIt's all so goddamn realistic and reminiscent of real-life love (and how often does that happen onscreen?) that The Puffy Chair would be hell to watch if it weren't so funny.
Arizona Daily Star - 9/10 by Phil VillarrealRemember the Duplass brothers, writer Mark and director Jay. They seem to be imbued with the talents of the top moviemaking brother acts: the zaniness of the Coens, the insight of the Wachowskis and the comedic spark of the Farrellys.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris HewittPuffy Chair has real-sounding dialogue and a shaggy quality that works in its favor because it makes the outcome unexpected.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 9/10 by Colin CovertIt captures the nuances and rhythms of messy real-life relationships dead-on.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 9/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)Puffy Chair has real-sounding dialogue and a shaggy quality that works in its favor because it makes the outcome unexpected.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Bill StametsBuilt on beats of deadpan timing and splendidly understated reaction shots.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Mick LaSalleUnder the cover of what seems like a charmingly slapdash style, the Duplass brothers have created a disarmingly shrewd movie.
