Marriage Story

Scoring a remarkable 100 on Rotten Tomatoes and emerging as one of the frontrunners in this year’s crop of new films, Marriage Story is Noah Baumbach’s best film since The Squid and the Whale. In Variety, Owen Gleiberman called it “better than good . . . a breakthrough into the dramatic stratosphere.” A tale of divorce, it recalls Asghar Farhadi’s brilliant A Separation. Two Oscar-level performances by Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver head up a stellar cast.
