About this title

Synopsis

From Academy Award�-nominated writer/director Noah Baumbach (The Squid and the Whale, Kicking and Screaming), the official screenplay book tie-in to the critically acclaimed movie from Paramount Vantage, starring Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Jack Black, and John Turturro.

Noah Baumbach's follow-up to his Academy Award�-nominated The Squid and the Whale is a daringly funny and bracingly honest exploration of the tender, absurd, and sometimes excruciating relationship between siblings and the fallout for those in their wake: children, husbands, lovers.

Margot Zeller (Academy Award� winner Nicole Kidman), a savagely bright, razor-tongued short-story writer who creates chaos wherever she goes, sets off on a surprise journey to the wedding of her estranged and free-spirited, unassuming sister Pauline (Golden Globe� nominee Jennifer Jason Leigh). Margot, with her all-too-rapidly maturing son Claude (newcomer Zane Pais) in tow, arrives with the gale force of a hurricane. From the minute she meets Pauline's fianc�—the unemployed artist Malcolm (Jack Black)—Margot starts to plant seeds of doubt about the union.

As the wedding approaches, one complication crashes into the next: vengeful neighbors, a beloved tree in the backyard, and Margot's own marital turmoil. The two sisters find themselves at the precipice of an unexpected transformation ultimately revealing that even when your family is about to implode...the one thing you can cling to for solace and comfort is your imploding family.

In addition to the complete script, this Newmarket Shooting Script� book includes an exclusive introduction by biographer Patricia Bosworth, an exclusive Q&A with Baumbach, a color photo section, and the complete cast and crew credits.
