Marriage Story (2019)

The drama of an announced divorce and the snowball effect it causes.

A realistic story that captures a bit of the drama caused by a divorce nowadays, particular to American life, showing how good intentions can be almost unintentionally cancelled by forces independent of the will of the emotionally involved parties. It does not necessarily say anything new about human nature, the most interesting parts being focused in the first and last 15 minutes.
It's a good movie, definitely overrated, but with some good performances.

Director / screenplay: Noah Baumbach
Featuring: Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson, Laura Dern, Ray Liotta, Alan Alda

Rating: 7/10
