Celeste & Jesse
Celeste & Jesse

 

Celeste and Jesse Forever @ Landmark Oriental Theatre (Opens Friday, August 24)
(dir. Lee Toland Krieger, USA, 2012)
Parks and Recreation star Rashida Jones not only co-wrote this comedic cautionary tale about not taking relationships for granted (with fellow small-screen star Will McCormack), she also plays “Celeste” to SNL alum Andy Samberg’s “Jesse.” They’re a newly divorced couple who try to remain friends while dating other people, which seems like the kind of good idea that won't at all fall apart and cause awkwardness, right?
Watch the trailer for Celeste and Jesse Forever
