I Don’t Understand You

Directed by David Joseph Craig & Brian William Crano2024USA/Italy96 mins

Effortlessly funny and with chemistry to spare, Nick Kroll and Andrew Rannells play the (mostly) happily married couple Dom and Cole, respectively, who are jet-setting off to Italy to celebrate their 10-year anniversary. After three years trying to adopt a child, they’re hoping this will be their last hurrah before fatherhood, but the prospective mother (played by Amanda Seyfried) hasn’t made up her mind yet. But the couple’s baby anxieties and general neuroses prove to be the least of their problems when this Italian getaway spirals comically and wildly out of control.

In their first outing as a directorial duo, real-life married couple David Joseph Craig and Brian William Crano used their own adoption woes as the blueprint for this snappy, deeply twisted comedy of errors — which features a hilarious supporting turn from The Gilded Age dreamboat Morgan Spector. Are Dom and Cole the sort of terrible, privileged Americans who leave a trail of destruction behind wherever they go, or are they inspirational gays who will stop at nothing to protect their family? I Don’t Understand You suggests it’s possible to be two things at once.
