In the movie Trainwreck, Amy Schumer plays herself, a relationship-phobic woman in what seems to be her late twenties or early thirties, battling an inner demon of self-respect and self-loathing. After she meets a seemingly clueless doctor after being assigned an opposition article based on his career, she begins to find herself arguing away her fearful tendencies and allowing herself closer and closer to this person, who has self-conscious tendencies of his own. He battles her alcoholism and drug abuse, while she tends to find herself annoyed by his boyish, shy, and cloy personality. After the death of her father, the emotions between Amy and her sister, as well as the doctor, start becoming more honest, more vivid, and more real, showing the human tendency to push each other away in trying times. The doctor grows weary of her antics, and she puts her walls up when push comes to shove, and they separate based on flimsy arguments and impatience. After a plethora of scenes of change, as well as hopeful attempts to growth, the film ends with a silly montage and they end up together again. This film is a whirlwind of true human nature and emotions, all revolving around falling in love and the nature of relationships, with cameos and appearances by several famous sports figured. Hilarious, relatable, and honest, Amy Schumer in “Trainwreck” seems to play herself a little too well, and maybe edges on the side of too much information in this story about learning to love and let go.
