Review of Marriage Story (2019) by Thewaffle — 28 Dec 2019

Marriage Story is a great display of acting as Driver and Johansson put on a clinic in this film. For two hours, you watch them go through every conceivable emotion, and you believe them in every moment.

The supporting cast is great as well. The plot is simple, but that doesn't really hold the film back. My only complaint is that both characters are so financially successful that the money doesn't really come into the picture, except for a few lines where Driver complains about how much money he's spending on his lawyers.

I would have liked to see the two of them making some really difficult financial decisions, like the ones people would face in a real divorce.
