Adult Best Friends

What happens when childhood best friends hit their 30s, but their lives have gone in very different directions? One decides to get married and settle down, the other remains heartily committed to an extended case of arrested development. That’s the premise for this comedy, whose chemistry derives from real-life BFFs Katie Corwin and Delaney Buffett, who both co-wrote the film and co-star as its leads: Katie and Delaney. The story hinges on Katie’s reluctance to break the news of pending nuptials to her bestie, which she plans to do on a weekend getaway. But then everything goes haywire.
