Featured reviews
My father watched this movie and actually called me to say that I should watch it immediately. My father is 68 years old and I'm 20 and bisexual.
Duck Butter is just raw, so much like real life. Laia Costa is amazing (AGAIN), the tears and the singing, she's incredible. Also, Alia Shawkat she's always worth it, isn't she?
The movie deserves a better rating!
From the photography to the story, it could not get indier than this. The film aims at throwing a light at the gay women dating scene, but often feels too focused on rich people's problems. Some parts are touching though. Oh, and the title is actually kind of gross.
I've been using IMDB for years, and I finally created an account just to review this movie.
Duck Butter captures REAL human emotions, challenges, and conversations. In "24 hours", this movie takes you through all the things you may or may not experience when you're in love. I'm a straight gal, but these actresses represented all the nuances that every couple (regardless of sexual orientation) can experience: clinginess, irrational jealousy, unexplainable sadness, family anger that trickles down into every day life, desire for space and breathing room, and very real arguments about music.
I love that the movie represented two extremes of the human spectrum -- one person who is vivacious and care-free, and one person who is a little more mild and guarded.
You'll have fun watching these girls through the motions, and you'll feel sad and cringe-y. Somehow, no matter how crazy people drive us, we know that it was worth all the while to open our hearts to them and to just love them.

This movie could be compared to Blue is the Warmest Color but this is way better. It does include some of the same things as that movie but this movie actually makes you feel something and in a way it's relatable to any relationship or how we should go about our love life. I also love how raw this movie is like this felt like I was right there in that moment. Great movie. Alia Shawkat you've really outdone yourself and I hope you continue making movies.
Two girls meet at a bar. One is an actor who worries about her motivation (played by Alia Shawkat, who also shares the writing credits). The other was the evening's singer at the bar (played by rising star Laia Costa). The following day they agree to try and spend a complete 24 hours in each other's company to explore their relationship.
They start out liking each other but as we learn more about them it's not so clear whether we really like them quite so much or whether they'll stay together. The characters are realistic and well acted but they have some strange attitudes and an interest in what might be described as toilet humour if it was even remotely funny - but it wasn't. Each to their own, I suppose.
Not the best accompaniment to a TV dinner. 5/10.

- TriviaThe film was first written about a male/female couple with a man named Sergio, but Miguel Arteta and Alia Shawkat had much difficulty casting the role. Once Laia Costa auditioned for the film, they felt that she had just the right grasp on the character, so they changed the story to two females.
