“Frances Ha”
Directed by Noah Baumbach
Reminiscent of some of Woody Allen’s early work, "Frances Ha" is
a charming and endlessly surprising little film with amusing dialogue and one
fantastic lead performance. Greta Gerwig, star and co-writer, is perfect in the
role of Frances, an impulsive 20-something struggling to find her place in a
world where rent isn’t cheap and all of her friends seem to have everything
together. Directed by Noah Baumbach and shot in crisp black and white, “Frances
Ha” is playful, smart and potent.
