On the Rocks

On the Rocks (2020) is the Sofia Coppola comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, starring Bill Murray and Rashida Jones. Laura, a young mother and writer in New York, starts to suspect her husband is having an affair. So she calls the one person who will gladly investigate: her charming, womanizing father, Felix.

Felix is an old-school art dealer who talks about women like a man from another century. He throws himself into the stakeout with relish, oysters and martinis included. Father and daughter cruise nighttime Manhattan in his vintage convertible, stake out the son-in-law (Marlon Wayans) outside restaurants, and even chase a lead all the way to Mexico. The deeper they dig, the clearer it gets that this was never really about a cheating husband. It is about Felix.

Coppola reunites with Bill Murray for the first time since Lost in Translation, and their easy chemistry carries the whole film. Ninety-seven minutes of light, melancholy comedy about marriage, jealousy, and a father you can neither forgive nor stop loving. Stream On the Rocks (2020) online on iFILM.
