Greta Gerwig, Mistress America

Greta Gerwig, co-writer and star of Noah Baumbach’s Mistress America, in conversation about the inspiration for this screwball comedy. Gerwig plays a live-wire who, at thirty, has reached a pivotal point in her life. As she tries to find the right path to happiness, love, and success, she is followed--and possibly sabotaged--by her eighteen-year-old new best friend and future stepsister.
