Margot at the Wedding | 949.98 MB
Margot and her adolescent son Claude take a train from New York City to Long Island, where Margot's sister Pauline is
about to get married to Malcolm. Even though Margot is a successful writer with a compassionate husband, she is repressed,
bitter, insecure, and angry, and she takes out her frustrations on anyone and everyone around her. Pauline is initially
happy that her sister has decided to come to the wedding, but she quickly realizes that Margot is still her terrible old
self. Over the course of a few days, past conflicts erupt and present conflicts explode, threatening not only to put a
damper on the wedding, but to ruin it completely.
Writer-director Noah Baumbach follows up his excellent The Squid and the Whale with another darkly funny tale of a
dysfunctional family. Nicole Kidman plays Margot, a Manhattanite who brings her young teenage son Claude (Zane Pais)
to their family home in the country, in order to attend the wedding of her sister Pauline (Jennifer Jason Leigh).
However, the sibling rivalry between Margot and Pauline quickly rears its ugly head, particularly when Margot decides
that Pauline could do better than her fiance Malcolm (Jack Black), who seems to be a bit of a loser. And things
only get worse when Margot's husband (John Turturro) shows up unexpectedly.
The performances are excellent - Nicole Kidman is perfectly cast as the bossy, slightly uptight Margot and she generates
a sparky chemistry with Jennifer Jason Leigh (Baumbach's real life partner) that is both believable and affecting.
Jack Black is equally good as Malcolm, toning down his usual manic comedy schtick and delivering a likeable
performance that is surprisingly sensitive.
Baumbachâ?™s script contains several delightful scenes and offhand moments, such as the two sisters laughing
maniacally about something horrible, or the film's key sequence where Margot sets out to prove that she can still
climb the tree in the back garden. However, you can't help but wonder about Baumbach's own childhood, because both
this film and The Squid and the Whale seem to be competing for the world record in family dysfunction.
The Squid and the Whale was one of the best films of 2005, so it's a little disappointing that Margot at the
Wedding is neither as funny or as moving as Baumbach's previous film. In particular, the climax fails to deliver
the emotional punch that you're expecting.
In short, this is an enjoyable drama that's worth seeing for the performances but it's not quite as funny or
as emotionally engaging as it should have been.
