Goofs
While Andrew is being interviewed for HLAF, although the interviewer is off camera you can still see his right hand raising toward his mouth. However in the next cut, a closeup of the interviewer, it is the left hand that's covering his mouth.

Quotes
Andrew: What's it like being depressed?
Domino: I don't know. It feels like... like you remember what better feels like and then you do things that you think will make you feel better but they don't. They make it worse. And the things that I'm really scared of doing are probably the things that will help me the most, but I just can't do them.

The right amount of tears & laughs!

It's a classic indie film and that's a plus in my book! It's a really nice story and it's perfectly directed, Cooper Raiff did an excellent job! There are some really joyful and humorous moments, really liked Raiff's sense of humour and there also some touching scenes, in particular the one where Raiff and Johnson talk about depression (I cried my eyes out during that scene)! Though I'd like to notify that there's a cringe dialogue between them in another scene later in the movie too! All in all, the movie is definitely worth watching if you love the combination of sentimental and funny!
