We know that “Masters of Sex” star Caitlin Fitzgerald is only planning a surprise birthday party for her boyfriend in this clip from the new comedy Mutual Friends, but look at the way this vivacious actress sells it. The lip-biting, the playful hand gestures. We would very much like a nice little surprise from her as well, although learning that she slept with another man on the night of her engagement probably would come as a bit of a buzz kill. It’s all about to come to a head in Mutual Friends, a film starring Caitlin Fitzgerald, Cheyenne Jackson (Lola Versus), Peter Scanavino (Frances Ha), Michael Stahl-David (In Your Eyes), Christina Cole (Jupiter Ascending) and many more.
Mutual Friends premieres on iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, Google Play, Xbox Video, Sony Playstation, Vudu and Cable Movies On Demand on July 1, 2014.
From the Press Release:
MUTUAL FRIENDS showcases the interlocking tales of ten New Yorkers who collide at a surprise party that goes spectacularly wrong. Liv (Fitzgerald) must host the perfect evening to assure the guests and herself that she is truly in love with her too-good-to-be-true fiancé, Christoph (Jackson), while avoiding the realization that she slept with her best friend Nate (Scanavino) on the night of her engagement.
With each story composed from a different viewpoint, the film takes place over the course of one day wrapped around a sticky love triangle that examines the reality of following your head versus following your heart.
