‘Shithouse': SXSW Grand Jury Prize Winner is a Warmly Talkative Gen-Z Romance [Review]

October 16, 2020 Jordan Ruimy

The big winner of the Grand Jury Prize at this year’s canceled SXSW was “Shithouse,” from director Cooper Raiff. This is 22-year-old Raiff’s nano-budget debut and it feels like an incredibly personal statement from him. He writes, directs, and stars in the film, with a little added help from his friends. Raiff plays a shy and dorky freshman struggling to adapt to dorm life. It all changes when he meets fellow freshman Maggie (Dylan Gelula) and spends a memorable night with her - this is when the film truly hits its stride, drunk on the power of dialogue and romantic discovery. Things do get awkward the morning after; she starts ignoring him, he tries to get her back. You know the drill.
