Storia

Margot Zeller, a short story writer with a sharp wit and tongue, arrives unexpectedly at her estranged sister Pauline's wedding rehearsal dinner on Long Island. The event is being held at their family seaside home where Pauline lives with her daughter and fiancé Malcolm, an unemployed musician/artist/depressive. Margot aims to rekindle her bond with Pauline but chaos ensues as she brings along her teenage son Claude and becomes involved in the family's complex dynamics. Margot's cutting remarks, particularly towards Claude and Malcolm, cause tension while Pauline shares a secret with Margot that she promptly tells Claude. Margot's disapproval of Malcolm is evident as she undermines him, and her own marital problems and nearby lover further complicate matters. The film offers a candid look at family life, sibling relationships, jealousy, and cruelty both within and outside the family.

Riassunto

Margot at the Wedding is a 2007 comedy-drama directed by Noah Baumbach, known for his biting social commentary and exploration of family dynamics. The story centers around sisters Margot (Nicole Kidman) and Pauline (Jennifer Jason Leigh), who haven't spoken in years but reunite on the eve of Pauline's wedding to Malcolm (Jack Black). Set amidst their Long Island family home, the film delves into sibling rivalry, jealousy, secrets, and cruelty as Margot disrupts the family's equilibrium. With a cast that includes Frances Conroy, Ciarán Hinds, and Zac Efron as Margot's son Claude, Margot at the Wedding offers a subversively funny yet raw portrayal of family life.
