And I have this scene in the movie deliberately because women so get vilified: “Oh, you've led him on.” I was perhaps too painfully honest with him. I still really liked his personality, but I was just not attracted to this person. We never say to men, “Look, I know she's an armadillo, but she's really funny! So maybe you'll become attracted to her.” But I wasn't attracted to him. Only in our society do we tell women to give a guy you're not chemically attracted to a chance. Sounds like that’s another commentary on our culture’s standards. And I even remember thinking after we were friends, like, it's such a shame because he's a great guy. At the time he only struck me as elegant and witty and funny and charming-but I was not physically attracted to him at all. No! So I’m glad you picked up on that, and I'm glad you used the word unctuous, because I think that that's something we can apply to him now that we know the story. In real life, was this a guy you would've been attracted to? Ryan Hansen is a pretty attractive guy in real life, but director Kimmy Gatewood makes him a lot more oily and unctuous.

And we became friends.Īn interesting thing in the movie is that your character is not attracted to him. What's even stranger is because he didn't go to Yale, I'm now like, is that a handle that he kept around for when he lied to women? Was that something he created on the plane when I wasn't looking? I don't know, but it checked out. He gave it to me and it had a Yale reference in it. But I remember looking up his Twitter handle. I remember we got off the plane, and at the time Twitter was something that hadn't turned into a total island of misfit toys, like, an evil broken-doll factory. So it seemed safe to communicate, knowing we were both with someone. “Where'd you go to school?” He said, I went to Yale and I said, “oh, my cousin, went there.” And he told me he was a hedge funder, which as a comic, I'm just like, “I think I know what that is.” We really enjoyed each other on the flight, and I think I had the guy I was dating picking me up. He was witty and charming and he was smart. You don't see a lot of like, Brooks Brothers-types of guys in L.A. I clocked him immediately as very East Coast preppy. I was coming home from Thanksgiving I got on the plane, and there was a guy sitting next to me who was my age. So let's go back to 2015, when you met this man. And every single lie that Dennis Kelly tells in this movie, those are lies that I took from memory that were told to me. I'd say two thirds of that movie are true. The beauty of this movie is that it is accurate. After the truth emerged and the relationship imploded, the stand-up star was reeling, questioning not only her own judgment but the truthfulness of everyone around her. He lied about his job, where he went to college, where he lived, and played on her sympathy with tales of illness and personal hardship that all turned out to be bogus. Shlesinger also wrote the movie, basing it on someone she dated several years ago.

If it weren't as ridiculous as it is infuriating, it would play like a horror story as it is, Shlesinger calls the film a 'rom- con' rather than a rom-com. In the movie, debuting Wednesday, Shlesinger plays a trusting, successful woman who is deceived and manipulated into romance by a man (played by Ryan Hansen) who builds himself up on a tower of increasingly elaborate lies. By the time she figures out he's not at all who he says he is, he's already woven himself into every part of her life. But the true-life relationship that inspired her new Netflix movie Good On Paper is still appalling to anyone who hears it for the first time.
