“The Overnight” is executive produced by the Duplass Brothers, which is a concise way to describe the comedic atmosphere of the movie. Playing with a casual, hand-held, semi-improvised approach, the picture attacks a central question of marital bliss from odd angles. What could be a gauzy drag featuring busy performances is instead absolutely hilarious, winningly acted, and surprisingly wise about the needs of marital partners when locked in a long term relationship. Playing discomfort with grace, “The Overnight” is a sneaky but uproarious odyssey into neuroses and sexual gamesmanship, retaining a human perspective as it samples wily comedic situations.
