Centerpiece of the 57th New York Film Festival (September 27 \u2013 October 13), making its New York premiere at Alice Tully Hall on Friday, October 4, 2019. MARRIAGE STORY<\/i> will be released in select theaters and on Netflix later this year.<\/p>\n

Noah Baumbach\u2019s new film is about the rapid tangling and gradual untangling of impetuosity, resentment, and abiding love between a married couple negotiating their divorce and the custody of their son.<\/span><\/p>\n

Adam Driver is Charlie, a 100-percent New York experimental theater director; Scarlett Johansson is Nicole, his principal actress and soon-to-be LA-based ex-wife. Their \u201camicable\u201d breakup devolves, one painful rash response and hostile counter-response at a time, into a legal battlefield, led on Nicole\u2019s side by Laura Dern and on Charlie\u2019s side by \u201cnice\u201d Alan Alda and \u201cnot-so-nice\u201d Ray Liotta. What is so remarkable about Marriage Story<\/i> is its frank understanding of the emotional fluctuations between Charlie and Nicole: they are both short-sighted, both occasionally petty, both vindictive, and both loving. The film is as harrowing as it is hilarious as it is deeply moving. With Merritt Wever and Julie Hagerty as Nicole\u2019s sister and mom, and Azhy Robertson as their beloved son, Henry.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat amazed me about Marriage Story<\/i> is the way that Noah keeps the many conflicting emotions between his characters flowing into and around and under and over each other, so beautifully that the film achieves the condition of music,\u201d says New York Film Festival Director and Selection Committee Chair Kent Jones. \u201cIn fact, it actually flowers into song in two of the film\u2019s loveliest and most surprising moments. Marriage Story<\/i> is a heartbreaker, it\u2019s very funny, and it has an emotional complexity that\u2019s worthy of Bergman.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI grew up coming to the New York Film Festival with my parents. And it’s where my first film Kicking and Screaming<\/i> premiered 24 years ago,\u201d says Baumbach. \u201cI couldn’t be more thrilled and proud that Marriage Story<\/i> has been selected as Centerpiece of the NYFF. The 14-year-old me\u2019s mind is blown; the 49-year-old me\u2019s mind is also blown.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Presented by Film at Lincoln Center, the 17-day New York Film Festival highlights the best in world cinema, featuring works from celebrated filmmakers as well as fresh new talent. The selection committee, chaired by Jones, also includes Dennis Lim, FLC Director of Programming, and Florence Almozini, FLC Associate Director of Programming. <\/span><\/p>\n
