Where to watch The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human (1999) tonight

The Mating Habits of the Earthbound Human (1999) runs 1 h 30 min, is rated R in the US and averages 6.0 from 79 TMDB members. David Hyde Pierce, playing an alien (credited as infinity-cubed in the opening credits), narrates a courtship in a late-20th century American city as an extraterrestrial nature documentary. The relationship "footage" is played straight, while the voice-over (with its most often wildly inaccurate theories) and elaborate visual metaphors add comedy.
