The Most Fun I've Ever Had With My Pants On is a 2012 road movie written, directed and starring Drew Denny. The film was an official selection at the 2012 Slamdance Film Festival and has been praised for its honest and intimate portrayal of female friendship. The premise of the film follows two childhood friends as they embark on a road trip from Los Angeles to Austin, Texas. Andy (Denny), who is struggling with the recent death of her mother, is hoping that the trip will be an opportunity for her to find closure and reconnect with her estranged father. Her best friend, Liv (Sarah Hagan), joins her on the trip and serves as a supportive emotional anchor for Andy throughout their journey.

As the women travel through the southwestern United States, they have a series of encounters and experiences that help them to confront their fears, insecurities, and anxieties. Along the way, they meet a cast of colorful characters, including reformed ex-convicts, eccentric artists, and lonely travelers.

The film is presented as a non-linear narrative, with flashbacks to Andy and Liv's childhood interwoven throughout the road trip narrative. These flashbacks provide context for the viewer as to the depth of the friendship between the two women and offer insight into the emotional wounds that they still carry.

One of the most striking aspects of The Most Fun I've Ever Had With My Pants On is its depiction of the complexities of female friendship. The film does not shy away from showing the ups and downs of Andy and Liv's relationship, including moments of bickering and conflicts. However, it is clear that their bond is a strong one, built on shared experiences and mutual support.

Another notable aspect of the film is its visual style. The cinematography, by David McFarland, captures the natural beauty of the southwestern landscape while also emphasizing the intimacy of the main characters' journey. This is effectively contrasted with the use of black and white footage during the flashbacks, which gives these segments a nostalgic and dreamlike quality.

Throughout the film, Drew Denny's script deftly balances moments of humor and levity with more emotionally charged scenes. The dialogue between Andy and Liv is both witty and poignant, and the film successfully portrays the complexities of grief, loss and self-discovery.

Overall, The Most Fun I've Ever Had With My Pants On is a heartfelt and honest exploration of female friendship and the power of travel to foster personal growth. The film is a testament to Drew Denny's talents as a writer, director and actor and is definitely worth seeking out for anyone looking for a poignant and memorable road movie.
