Synopsis
|
Greenberg
brings actor Ben Stiller together with Academy Award-nominated
writer/director Noah Baumbach ("The Squid and the Whale")
to tell the funny and moving tale of Roger Greenberg.
Roger Greenberg [Ben Stiller], single, fortyish and at a
crossroads in his life, finds himself in Los Angeles, house-sitting
for six weeks for his more successful/married-with-children
brother. In search of a place to restart his life, Greenberg
tries to reconnect with old friends including his former
bandmate Ivan [Rhys Ifans]. But old friends aren't necessarily
still best friends, and Greenberg soon finds himself spending
more and more time with his brother's personal assistant
Florence [Greta Gerwig], an aspiring singer and also something
of a lost soul. Despite his best attempts not to be drawn
in, Greenberg and Florence manage to forge a connection,
and Greenberg realizes he may at last have found a reason
to be happy.
