The Gals are joined by Dan from the Talk Me Into Podcast to talk about one of their favorite filmmaking duos, and life-partners, Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach. Dan and the Gals breakdown their three big collaborations: Greenberg, Frances Ha, and Mistress America.
We get deep into their specific writing style and how they never shy away from their flawed characters, before diving into the easy Woody Allen comparisons both have received in the past. Chels argues how Baumbach in particular is more of a Mike Nichols, and Morgan touches on complacency of actors in Allen's films and how women are always asked to answer for the sins of men. Plus a few side rants about Once Upon a Time in America and The Deer Hunter.
