The Big Picture Raunchy comedies are making a comeback of late. Between the successes of Joy Ride, Bottoms, and No Hard Feelings last year and the box office dominance of Anyone But You, audiences have shown an appetite for R-rated laughs, especially of the romantic variety. Writer, director, and star Madison Hatfield promises much of the same, with plenty of heart, in her new short film I Could Dom which is set to make its world premiere at the Aspen Shortsfest on April 5.

Billed as a "sex comedy for people-pleasers," Hatfield's short film also explores themes of self-love and coming into one's own as June explores what's out there for her in the dating scene.
I Could Dom makes its debut at the Aspen Shortsfest at the Wheeler Opera House on April 5 at 8 p.m. The festival runs from Monday, April 1 through Sunday, April 7 in Aspen, Colorado. Check out the exclusive trailer for Hatfield's short film above.
