Marriage Story

There are so many things Nicole and Charlie love about each other – yet they are getting divorced. As an actress, she has garnered a coveted role in a television show that requires her to move to Los Angeles. As a playwright, however, he wants to stay in New York. While the divorce proceedings slowly start to escalate, Charlie and Nicole look back on the time when it all started. How they fell in love. How they built a life and family together. And how the dismantling of their happily conceived marriage began. Director Noah Baumbach delivers a Bergmanesque, black-humoured drama that offers a chronicle of how a relationship changes – flails, explodes, evolves – over the course of divorce proceedings. MARRIAGE STORY reflects the disturbing process of separation while simultaneously celebrating the beauty of love. Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver are on finest form.
