Film Preview: Touchy Feely

The latest film from director Lynn Shelton who previously worked with Rosemarie DeWitt in her 2012 film Your Sister's Sister, which also starred Emily Blunt and Mark Duplass. They reunite alongside Ellen Page, Josh Pais and Allison Janney for this independent drama. Touchy Feely showcases relationships involving siblings and the complexities that surround quiet but notable flings we may neglect to mention to our friends.

It was nominated for the Grand Jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival in 2013.


Abby (DeWitt) is a masseuse who suddenly develops an aversion to bodily contact that naturally affects her job. Her brother Paul (Josh Pais) works as a dentist, with his directionless daughter Jenny (Ellen Page). When Jenny impulsively states that Paul has a "healing touch" when it comes to his dental work, the fib becomes true as Paul's work begins to heal many of his customers and their dental issues.

Touchy Feely is released in the UK in March 2014 (official release date hasn't been set) and the trailer is embedded below as usual:
