Amy Schumer Helps Move Us Forward

Lex Jurgen - July 17, 2015


Amy Schumer's new film by Leslie Mann's weak-bearded gimp features a 30-something woman reveling in life as a single professional with a different loose man in her bed every night. That is until she meets a genuine guy who threatens to make her want something more out of her relationships. It's your traditional male-centered romantic comedy, only flipped entirely on its head, because it's a woman now who needs to learn to grow up. How fucking genius is that? First, female Ghostbusters, now this. What's next? Chick cops burned out on the job with families begging them to get help for their demons? Chick superheroes who save Manhattan, specifically Park Avenue between 37th and Grand Central? It takes a filmmaker as strictly guided by his wife as Judd Apatow to shatter gender stereotypes with this role reversal inventiveness. I can't wait for Ellen's take. I think we've arrived.
