The Intervention

"The Intervention" (2016) is a compact comedy-drama you can watch online on iFILM, written and directed by Clea DuVall in her feature debut. Four couples rent a house for what looks like a friendly weekend away. It isn't — most of them have quietly agreed to stage an intervention for one marriage they think is beyond saving.

When the plan unravels, and it unravels fast, every couple's own cracks start showing. Natasha Lyonne, Cobie Smulders, Melanie Lynskey and Jason Ritter lead a cast where nobody is fully honest or fully wrong. DuVall turns a breezy premise into something more unsettling: a weekend where people trying to fix someone else's relationship end up staring at their own. Stream "The Intervention" online on iFILM.
