Noah Baumbach and Greta Gerwig co-wrote Mistress America, and from the looks of this darkly sparkling trailer it’s got WGA and other screenwriter love written all over it. Opens August 14 under the attentive care of Fox Searchlight.
In MISTRESS AMERICA, Tracy (Lola Kirke) is a lonely college freshman in New York, having neither the exciting university experience nor the glamorous metropolitan lifestyle she envisioned. But when she is taken in by her soon-to-be stepsister, Brooke (Greta Gerwig) – a resident of Times Square and adventurous gal about town – she is rescued from her disappointment and seduced by Brooke’s alluringly mad schemes.
