Personally, I like to think that explains the \u201cseven-year itch,\u201d the phenomenon by which so many of us change jobs, friends and such on a predictable cycle: because you\u2019re literally not the same person anymore.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s been eight years since Albee (Amber Midthunder) and Walker (Taylor Gray) got married, and their relationship is running on fumes. A surprisingly serious-minded drama from \u201cHot Tub Time Machine\u201d helmer Steve Pink (who co-wrote Gen X John Cusack romances \u201cGrosse Pointe Blank\u201d and \u201cHigh Fidelity\u201d), no-frills indie \u201cThe Wheel\u201d follows this couple on a weekend retreat to a remote Airbnb, <span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">where the pair plan to hash things out once and for all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Walker has brought along a self-help book, \u201cSeven Questions to Save Your Marriage.\u201d Albee says she\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>, but seldom looks away from her iPhone. E<span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">very time he makes an effort, she rolls her eyes and says something sarcastic or mean. The hostile young woman berates her husband for being too \u201cnice,\u201d unable to accept his affection as sincere (\u201cHow can you love <\/span><em style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">this<\/em><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">?\u201d she asks at one point). Albee\u2019s every comment is designed to push Walker away, as if provoking him to break up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>By the time the end credits roll, this seemingly doomed couple will either have parted ways or decided to double down and work on their issues. Neither ending is necessarily a h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>y one, but like \u201cThe Graduate,\u201d this film \u2014 written by Trent Atkinson, whose insights reveal themselves in unpredictable yet true ways over the film\u2019s short running time \u2014 believes that audiences are grown up enough to recognize that relationships take effort. As such, the last frame of the movie is no guarantee of how thing will play out in the long run (a word of advice: stay through the credits).<\/p>\n<p>Testy conversations between Albee and Walker reveal that these two met as kids in the foster system and got hitched at 16, hoping it would protect them from the trauma. Albee was abused in some form, and Walker swore he\u2019d save her. You can\u2019t entirely blame her for being difficult, but boy is she a tough one to love.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Wheel\u201d is perfectly suited for mumblecore fans, who will appreciate the following comparison: Think of Walker as a Mark Duplass type. He\u2019s softer and more sensitive than most guys, in touch with his tears and unashamed of his emotions. Albee gives off strong Aubrey Plaza vibes, her body language projecting a kind of keep-away ambivalence. She can\u2019t help being cruel, and the sweeter Walker behaves toward her, the more Albee seems determined to rile him up. Just once, she\u2019d like to see him get as angry as she feels all the time.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe this weekend <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a> will be the ticket. It\u2019s certainly a convenient setup for a movie made during the pandemic. (\u201cThe Wheel\u201d makes no mention of COVID, so one can watch without necessarily thinking the setup is any more unusual than cabin-in-the-woods indies \u201cYour Sister\u2019s Sister\u201d or \u201cBaghead.\u201d) Once they reach the rental, their well-meaning host Carly (Bethany Anne Lind) picks up on the tension right away and ill-advisedly decides to play couple\u2019s therapist.<\/p>\n<p>Carly is about to get married to boyfriend Ben (Nelson Lee). These two sound more idealistic about love, though interacting with Albee and Walker will inevitably put strain on their relationship as well. It\u2019s a good idea on Atkinson\u2019s part to include a second couple, \u00e0 la \u201cWho\u2019s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?,\u201d lest audiences assume the central pair show are meant to represent the film\u2019s views on all men and women. (This script is nowhere near as sharp as that landmark American play, but it\u2019s hard to imagine naming the character \u201cAlbee\u201d was a coincidence.)<\/p>\n<p>Pink, a veteran TV director who takes a rather self-important \u201ca film by\u201d credit on what feels like a first feature (it\u2019s his fifth), shows almost no intuition for how to block or shoot a scene, inserting songs where silence would have been more effective. His clumsiness leaves the actors looking slightly amateurish, despite the strong, vulnerable performances they deliver. It all builds to a gutsy (if contrived) 10-minute shot on a Ferris wheel, where Albee and Walker sit side by side, facing the camera, trying to decide the fate of their marriage. Round and round and round she goes, and where she stops nobody knows.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-tags \/\/ a-children-icon-bullet lrv-u-font-family-primary u-letter-spacing-012 lrv-u-line-height-large lrv-u-color-brand-primary\">\n<h2 id=\"optional-screen-reader\" class=\"lrv-a-screen-reader-only\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"optional_screen_reader\"><\/span>\n        optional screen reader  <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<nav class=\"o-nav  o-nav lrv-u-border-b-1 u-border-color-brand-secondary-40 lrv-u-border-t-1 lrv-u-text-align-center lrv-u-padding-b-025 u-padding-t-050@desktop u-padding-t-050@tablet u-padding-t-050@mobile-max lrv-u-margin-t-2 lrv-u-margin-b-2\" data-dropdown=\"\">\n<h4 id=\"\" class=\"o-nav__title lrv-u-color-black lrv-u-font-family-secondary o-nav__title a-content-ignore u-line-height-140 u-letter-spacing-0002\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Read_More_About\"><\/span>Read More About:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/nav>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/plain\" class=\"optanon-category-C0004\">\n  !function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    if (f.fbq) return;\n    n = f.fbq = function() {\n      n.callMethod ?\n          n.callMethod.apply(n, arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n    };\n    if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n    n.push = n;\n    n.loaded = !0;\n    n.version = '2.0';\n    n.queue = [];\n    t = b.createElement(e);\n    t.async = !0;\n    t.src = v;\n    s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n    s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n  }(window, document, 'script',\n      'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n  fbq('init', '586935388485447');\n  fbq('init', '315552255725686');\n  fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
