Review of Frances Ha (2013) by Wendy S — 19 Apr 2015
Welcome to the parallel universe of Frances, who will never be lonely in her loneliness, who knows the immeasurable joy of the sad clown, who surely is from another postal zone. Frances, may you stay forever young.
Noah Baumbach's meticulous tribute to the French New Wave filmmakers of the late 1950s and '60s works on every level. Endearing "undateables" Greta Gerwig (Frances) and Mickey Sumner (Sophie) present us with a modern "hedgehog's dilemma"; we can only watch with joy - and dread.
