Noah Baumbach directs the irresistibly sweet Greta Gerwig (who also co-writes) in the black & white mumblecore dramedy Frances Ha.
Most will find the film wanders arounds aimlessly not really up to much but senseless conversation but with a bit of patience you'll find a delicate eye and feel for direction Baumbach and a insanely realistic reckless yet sympathetic character played by Gerwig. Most films these days about a young women living in New York will portray the character as whiny and hopelessly lost in life. Frances Halladay knows she's got problems but instead makes the best of what she has and subtly grasps onto what little she can. The film is filled with the slightest nuances that make the story and character so much more compelling the impatient eye will ever catch.
