Plus One
Single twenty-something friends Alice (Maya
Erskine) and Ben (Jack Quaid) decide to be
each other’s “plus one” at the many weddings
they are set to attend that summer. However,
the pair soon realize the great, romantically
promising chemistry they have with
each other.
FIVE FACTS:
- The movie’s world premiere was at the
Tribeca Film Festival in April 2019. - The following August, the film was released
on streaming service Hulu, for which Erskine
had co-created the hit series PEN15. - Plus One has been likened to When Harry
Met Sally, which happens to star Quaid’s
mother, Meg Ryan. - The Hawaiian wedding scene was actually
filmed in California, with a Hawaii license
plate placed on the cab that drops off the
lead characters. - The critics’ consensus on Rotten Tomatoes
calls Plus One “an entertaining outing
elevated by well-matched leads and a story
that embraces and transcends genre clichés.”
