Lazy Boy unfolds in long, unhurried takes that mirror the stillness of its subject: a full-time furniture salesman in the South Bay of Los Angeles, working through the quiet despair of an economic recession. With customers scarce and sales impossible, the film lingers on stalled transactions and empty showrooms, transforming the monotony of labor into a portrait of endurance.
