[A] sweetly frivolous tale of stony-broke hipsters navigating creative dreams and disappointments in New York City.

A rare and wonderful film that give thanks for friends and revels in life's low times.

Yes, it is rather kooky, and highly self-conscious... but it's also sweet, endearing, touching, and features proper women you can actually believe in, and who aren't just drippily searching for love, which is something of a novelty.

Frances Ha is filled with a bubbly sense of life and an effervescent lead character that smooths out some of the more melancholic moments and makes the whole thing go down as easy as a Sunday mimosa.
