Following 2012’s Frances Ha and last year’s While We’re Young, The New York born director returns with Mistress America, once again set to simultaneously explore, praise, and ponder the aimless intellectual wanderers of Generation Y in, a refreshingly hilarious screwball comedy. On the whole, Mistress America feels more like the sister film to Frances Ha than the director’s others, not particularly because the film is actually about a girl who becomes step-sisters with a very “Frances Hallowaylike” character. Considering America was co-written by Baumbach and real-life girlfriend Greta Gerwig (who also co-wrote Frances Ha), it’s no surprise that the film is charged with similarly clever observations and comedic rhythms about characters so creative and cultured, and yet so incompetent and existentially clumsy. Two characters share these qualities. Relative newcomer Lola Kirke (Gone Girl) plays Tracy, an incoming Freshman Lit major with more creative writing ideas than friends. Her introduction to school is a lonely one, prompting her recently engaged mother to encourage her to meet up with her fiancé’s own out-of-school-age daughter who lives nearby. Enter Brooke (Gerwig), who immediately and literally embraces her new step-sister and opens Tracy’s eyes to a world of spontaneous adventures. What makes Mistress America so fun (and it really is) is its intelligentsia-tinged hilariousness that here, channels screwball-styled comedy, showing how finely Baumbach and Gerwig have their fingers on this culture’s hipster-pulsed zeitgeist. As While We’re Young also explored the self-aware character study of studying the hipster-bohemian lifestyle (young and aging alike), America’s Tracy, being all perceiving in her own right, looks at Brooke with empathy, channeling her new adventures and sister into her creative writing. Brooke’s fun yet unrealistic and equally fleeting goals, such as intentions of opening a restaurant, excite an encourageable Tracy, but Brooke the character is ultimately filtered through Tracy’s own writing, revealing a person whose tragic romance is at both times invigorating and unsustainable. Mistress America contains whip-smart intellectual musings and dialogue, further enhanced by a deft use of quick-cut editing to mine real laughs and poignancy. Whether or not audiences are familiar with Baumbach’s past work, Mistress America is a smart film that will entertain those looking for a riotously funny and understated comedy that counts among the director’s most entertaining. Mistress America is now playing in select cities. • 08.27.15 PUZZLE - 188 First-Place Finishes by Myles Mellor WEEKLY CROSSWORD See Answers Next Week Letter Drop 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 puz 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 Across 1.
