First Trailer for Noah Baumbach’s FRANCES HA Starring Greta Gerwig
The first trailer for Noah Baumbach’s delightful indie comedy “Frances Ha” has been released. Shot beautifuly in black & white, Frances Ha centers on a 27 year old dancer trying to figure out her life. I saw the film last year at TIFF and absolutely loved it. It’s hilarious, endlessly charming, relatable, and features another fantastic performance by indie queen Greta Gerwig.
Frances (Greta Gerwig) lives in New York, but she doesn’t really have an apartment. Frances is an apprentice for a dance company, but she’s not really a dancer. Frances has a best friend named Sophie, but they aren’t really speaking anymore. Frances throws herself headlong into her dreams, even as their possible reality dwindles. Frances wants so much more than she has, but lives her life with unaccountable joy and lightness. FRANCES HA is a modern comic fable in which Noah Baumbach explores New York, friendship, class, ambition, failure, and redemption.
Mickey Summer, Adam Driver, Michael Zegen, and Patrick Heusinger co-star. Frances Ha opens May 17th.
