I didn't like this as much as I once did - it lacks the autobiographical detail of Stillman's first three movies, not to mention focus. It doesn't have the same reason to be - the others were about specific things, debutantes, Americans abroad, disco... not so much this. It's endearing though - pleasant cast, some great Stillman riffs. Greta Gerwig and Adam Brody are particularly at home. More diversity in the cast for Stillman. Aubrey Plaza allowed to overact. Would've liked more stuff between the editor and Gerwig.
