Alexander the Last is a 2009 American drama film written and directed by Joe Swanberg and starring Jess Weixler, Justin Rice, Barlow Jacobs, and Amy Seimetz.

Alex is an actress who is attracted to her co-star Jamie, who stars alongside her in a local theater play.

When Elliott goes on tour with his music, Alex lets Jamie sleep on her couch and flirts with him.

Swanberg said that his films need to provide what does not exist, while also competing with the moments that are on YouTube and Facebook.

[6] Richard Brody of The New Yorker wrote: "Alexander the Last is a significant advance over Swanberg's other films; his camera work—and he does indeed do the camera work—is more careful and more controlled, and his images are by and large more expressive, not merely revelatory of performance (as they were, for the most part, in his earlier films).
