After a festival run, Celeste and Jesse Forever was initially released theatrical in only 4 movie theaters. Eventually, the film received a wide release at a few hundred theaters (586 to be exact). In the scheme of things, that’s not a particularly broad scope; for comparison, The Dark Knight Rises’ widest run was in 4,404 theaters. If the tender movie somehow missed your area, which is likely, you’ll be able to catch Celeste and Jesse Forever on Blu-ray and DVD beginning on February 5.
The romance and friendship-based film stars Rashida Jones and Andy Samberg as a couple who met young and married young but are now encountering troubles down the road. After breaking up, they try to maintain a friendship, but the idea in practice is more difficult than either of them would have guessed. Part romance and part comedy, the film was written by Jones and Will McCormack, who makes an appearance in the film, as well. Additionally, Elijah Wood, Emma Roberts, and The Mindy Project’s Chris Messina also pop up at various points during the runtime.
Jones is all over the bonus features in Sony Pictures Home Entertainment’s release and will appear in both the writers’ commentary and the actors’ commentary with the set. Additionally, both Blu-ray and DVD copies will come with deleted scenes and a few featurettes, including a Q&A session after the film’s premiere. Altogether, it should be enough to keep the film’s bigger fans occupied for more than just a few hours. You can check out the full list, below.
