Wes' playful approach to day to day life and the warmth of the central friendship keeps all this from becoming too heavy. There's plenty of beautiful scenery to look at and Carlini makes good use of some of the area's lesser-known landscapes
providing breathtaking views, a central friendship that holds necessary weight, and lush, stylistic choices, "She's in Portland" is able to overcome most plot contrivances by nicely exposing the imperfections of Wes and Luke's life
