Roommate Wanted is a 2015 independent comedy-drama film directed by Rob Margolies. The movie stars Alexa PenaVega as Janie, a young woman living in Los Angeles who is struggling to make ends meet after her boyfriend leaves her. Janie decides to search for a roommate and finds a potential match in the form of a bubbly and vivacious young woman named Dee (Spencer Grammer).

The two women hit it off immediately and soon become close friends. However, Janie begins to suspect that Dee may be hiding something when she notices that Dee always seems to have a lot of money, despite the fact that she doesn't work. Janie's suspicions only grow when she realizes that Dee has a lot of strange, secretive behavior.

As Janie delves deeper into Dee's secrets, she uncovers some shocking truths about her new roommate's past. Dee has a dark history, and Janie must decide whether to confront her about it or continue living with her.

Aside from Janie and Dee, the movie features a number of other characters, including Janie's boss and friend, Terry (Kathryn Morris), Dee's estranged father (Richard Riehle), and Janie's ex-boyfriend, Ethan (Bryan Dechart). All of these characters play significant roles in the story and add depth to the film's overall narrative.

The movie explores a variety of themes, including trust, friendship, and redemption. It also deals with the difficulties of living in a big city, where people often feel isolated and alone. Janie and Dee's relationship is at the core of the film, and their evolving friendship provides the movie with its emotional center.

Throughout the course of the movie, Janie and Dee have a number of adventures and misadventures together. They go on dates, get drunk, and even become amateur detectives as they try to solve the mystery of Dee's past. The film is often funny and lighthearted, but it also has its dark moments, particularly when it explores the painful events that have shaped Dee's life.

The movie's cast is excellent, and all of the actors bring something unique to their roles. Alexa PenaVega is particularly strong as Janie, and she brings a lot of warmth and vulnerability to the character. Spencer Grammer is also great as Dee, and she manages to make the character both likable and sympathetic, despite her many flaws.

Overall, Roommate Wanted is an engaging and well-crafted film with a lot of heart. The movie's themes and characters are relatable, and the story is both funny and moving. If you're looking for an indie comedy-drama with heart, then this is definitely a movie worth checking out.
