I know Greta Gerwig directed Barbie, and that was huge- but how is she not a massive force as a performer? She’s a skilled and magnetic actor, and she’s what scientists have been known to call “good lookin’.” My best guess is that she was choosy about her roles, and would rather be in smaller productions with strong characters than in big budget movies as Generic Leading Lady. Either that or Hollywood is dumb.
Retro Movie Adventures: Frances Ha (2012)
Not a comedy remake of Frances.
