Before directing and writing Lady Bird, Greta Gerwig illuminated the big screen as the titular character in Frances Ha. In the slice-of-life indie movie, Frances is a 27-year-old dancer who lives with her best friend in Brooklyn. When forced to move out, she travels to various places, including Chinatown, her hometown in Sacramento, and even Paris. The film will resonate with anyone who knows what it feels like to be young, broke, and lost in life.
