Damsels in Distress
Greta Gerwig shines as a college student challenging the male dominated culture on campus, in Whit Stillman’s sweet, eccentric and frequently hilarious comedy.
Director: Whit Stillman
Overview
Whit Stillman (Love & Friendship, The Last Days of Disco) takes a typically witty, bitter-sweet look at the lives of a quartet of girls who are determined to ring the changes at a depressingly grungy, hitherto boorish and male dominated East Coast college. As they put their plans into action, they also, inevitably, become involved with various members of the establishment’s masculine population, and find both their loyalty to one another and their very sanity coming under threat.
