- Synopsis
- A look at the relationship between a lonely introverted girl and a young video store clerk vying for her attention. "Good Dick" is a modern fairy tale about a troubled, reclusive young woman and the persistent video clerk who draws her out of her claustrophobic world by starting up a unique courtship with her. As they become closer, her sexual antipathy is met with his unflinching optimism, until finally her aggressive defenses overwhelm them both and the relationship bursts apart. Profoundly affected by his presence in her life, she finds that she has the courage to face her past.

-
"A short and sweet anti-romantic comedy, Good Dick puts together a heav ily depressed young woman with a homeless clerk who rents her porn at a Los Angeles video store."
-
"Alternately compelling and dramatically limp, the film scores points for exploring unfamiliar territory but lacks the emotional depth to make some very strange behavior believable."
-
"Dysfunction beguiles in 'Good Dick', a perverse romantic comedy whose coarse title belies its tender heart."
-
"Marianne Palka's comedy, which she wrote and stars in, lacks the script, acting and the laughs to rise in the marketplace"
