While We're Young Review


Noah Baumbach impresses yet again with this story of a middle aged couple living vicariously through a younger one.

Great characters are supported by a sharp screenplay by Baumbach that has a great amount of heart. Surprised to see a lot of myself reflected in both Ben Stiller and Adam Driver's characters. Sure it's no Frances Ha but few things are.

Oh and awesome to see Adam Horovitz aka my second favorite Beastie Boy giving a great performance.

Movie Review: Frances Ha


What a delightful little film. Having never seen any of Baumbach's other works, I can't comment on them but Frances Ha is one of the most charming films I've seen all year.

Greta Gerwig's lead performance was truly amazing, she plays such a great "poor thing," I just wanted to hug her every time something went wrong.

Fantastic music, stellar direction, believable down to earth performances and a good story make this one of the best films of 2013.
