A man from Los Angeles, who moved to New York years ago, returns to L.A. to figure out his life while he house-sits for his brother.
Staid tragicomedy in Woody Allen territory, but a touch more bleak; Ben Stiller does a good job in an unusual role as misanthrope.
Maltin***: "Baumbach and Leigh conceived this incisive, if laid-back, character study of a self-absorbed screwup (Stiller, in a finely tuned performance). Spending time with Greenberg may not be everyone's cup of tea, but the film has undeniable resonance, and paints a vivid picture of everyday life in L.A."
