SOMETHING'S MORE THAN ONE THING - Amber
Written and directed by: Jay Alvarez
With: James Scully, June Laporte, Emily Skinner, and Alex Sgambati
A satirical comedy about dating in the age of the internet. Grace Scheller, writing for the Raindance Festival, said: "The complicated yet all too familiar relationship between Dylan and Cailtin constructs a striking mirror with which Alverez uses to reflect on the rising prevalence of internet addiction and its isolating affects. The film’s bold, feisty, and astutely raw attitude is certainly something to take notice of as it rises to triumph." The film premiered at the 2024 Raindance Film Festival.
Tim Grierson reviewed SOMETHING'S MORE THAN ONE THING, a dramedy by Jay Alverez, for Screen Daily. "Much of the film sees Dylan [Devan Costa] and Caitlin [Alex Sgambati] living their own lives, even though they cohabit – another potentially potent metaphor for the sense of aloneness endemic to the modern world. With Dylan trying to realise his filmmaking dreams and Caitlin attempting to eke out a living — while growing closer to sensitive coworker Remy (James Scully) — there are signs that these two have been drifting apart even before Dylan’s one-night stand. But Alvarez’s decision to keep them separate throughout much of Something’s More Than One Thing introduces an interesting tension in which we get to know each as individuals, not as a couple."
