Look Both Ways is a 2022 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Wanuri Kahiu and written by April Prosser.
The film stars Lili Reinhart, Luke Wilson, Andrea Savage, Aisha Dee, Danny Ramirez, David Corenswet, and Nia Long.
[1] During her senior year at the University of Texas, Natalie has sex with her friend Gabe, with both agreeing not to "make it a big deal".
When Natalie takes them, her life diverges into two parallel realities based on the result, the film showing both stories at the same time.
When Natalie visits Cara and her girlfriend in LA, she gets a call from Rosie who says she is left overnight with a stranger.
She gets accepted to the South by Southwest film festival in Austin where she sits on a panel of creators including Lucy and discusses a comic inspired by Rosie.
Lucy sees Natalie’s short film and encourages her to reconnect when she returns to Los Angeles.
[2] In June 2021, Luke Wilson, Andrea Savage, Aisha Dee, Danny Ramirez, and David Corenswet were added the cast.
[11] Courtney Howard of Variety said: "While the filmmakers' heads and hearts are in the right place with their resonant sentiments on taking risks and embracing fate, their execution of narrative basics proves lackluster.
"[12] Reubyn Coutinho of Netflix Junkie wrote: By not nudging the audience toward one particular perspective, it remains true to its own mission statement, i.e. getting people to Look Both Ways.
