Noah Baumbach started out really well as a director with The Squid and the Whale , which he followed with the chalkboard-fingernailing Margot at the Wedding . But something good may have come from that experience: One of his actors from the film, Jennifer Jason Leigh , helped Baumbach put together the story for his new flick, Greenberg . It features an indie turn for Ben Stiller...

Noah Baumbach’s upcoming film, Greenberg, is about a Jewish guy, played by Ben Stiller, who doesn’t do anything. So far the only new music is a slightly slowed version of the piano intro to “All My Friends,” but we’ll take it. Actually, we’ll only take it if it doesn’t make us want to die as [...]

The Squid and the Whale director Noah Baumbach has a thing for selfish, disaffected and socially inept characters, and it looks like his latest film Greenberg will be no different. The movie stars Ben Stiller as Roger Greenberg, a middle-aged drifter who moves from New York to L.A. to house sit for his brother, and falls for his brother's personal assistant Florence (Greta Gerwig). It's...

In the trailer for Noah Baumbach's Greenberg, Ben Stiller (who plays the title character) complains that no one calls him on his birthday anymore, writes an angry letter to Starbucks and worries that he'll catch the illness that's afflicting his dog. "I'm freaked out by you kids because your parents were too perfect at parenting, all that Baby Mozart and Dan Zanes songs. You're all...

Above is the trailer for Greenberg , the new Noah Baumbach picture film starring Ben Stiller, which promises a score by LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy. Murphy says the score doesn't sound like LCD Soundsystem, so take that as you will. The trailer, which features some "it's so hard to be middle-aged :((((" moments, has "All My Friends" playing in the background, so...

Ben Stiller has gone indie. Focus Features has just debuted the official trailer for Noah Baumbach's newest film Greenberg starring Ben Stiller, Rhys Ifans, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Chris Messina, and Greta Gerwig. This looks like a huge improvement over Baumbach's last film, Margot at the Wedding , and a big departure for Stiller as well. I'm a fan of Baumbach primarily because...

A song can make all the difference to a trailer. This first footage from Noah Baumbach's new comedy / drama Greenberg could be seriously depressing, were it not for the bouncy 'All My Friends' by LCD Soundsystem. Ben Stiller, Rhys Ifans, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Greta Gerwig star in the film that was called Greenberg, then was untitled, and is now apparently called Greenberg once more....

Noah Baumbach, at least briefly, has reminded us that Ben Stiller was once a decent comedic actor who we didn't all despise with heat of a pre-lawsuit cup of McDonald's coffee. Granted, just last year, Stiller made the best movie...

... feature film from The Squid And The Whale writer/director and frequent Wes Anderson collaborator, Noah Baumbach. "Greenberg" follows Stiller as "a New Yorker who moves to Los Angeles in order to figure out his life while he housesits for his brother" and the pathos Stiller's defeated everyman evokes instantly reminds me of Adam Sandler's dramatic turn in Paul Thomas...
