Ben Stiller in Greenberg Trailer

A trailer has been released for the latest film from Squid and the Whale director Noah Baumbach. The movie is entitled Greenberg and stars Ben Stiller as the title character, which features the actor taking a somewhat dramatic turn opposite Jennifer Jason Leigh, Rhys Ifans, and Greta Gerwig.

Check out the trailer…

Meet Roger Greenberg (Ben Stiller): a dysfunctional 40-year-old at a crossroads in his life.  Roger wants to “do nothing” for a while, so he agrees to housesit for his younger and more successful brother, giving him a free place to stay in L.A.  While in town, he tries to reconnect with his old friends and band mates but times have changed, and old friends aren’t necessarily still best friends.  Greenberg starts spending time with his brother’s personal assistant Florence (Great Gerwig), an aspiring singer and herself something of a lost soul too.  During a series of embarrassingly awkward romantic encounters, we sense that perhaps even someone as irascible as Greenberg may have found somebody who is prepared to appreciate him for himself – if he would only stop critiquing Florence’s techniques in bed.  Over the course of several weeks, we watch an uncertain and wonderfully vulnerable courtship play out, and learn how funny, and terribly unpredictable, love in the modern world can be.
