Jay Kelly

In this rueful comic drama from acclaimed director Noah Baumbach, George Clooney delivers a richly nuanced performance as Jay Kelly, a Hollywood icon who embarks on an incident-filled journey from Los Angeles to Paris to Tuscany. While confronting the choices that have left him unmoored from any true sense of self and estranged from his daughters and friends, he remains willfully oblivious to the sacrifices of his devoted manager (a soulful Adam Sandler) and his publicist (Laura Dern), who try to maintain the bubble around him. Featuring a brilliant ensemble cast, virtuoso production design, and dynamic cinematography, this tour-de-force character study weaves past and present into a memory piece, exploring the hard truth that we get only one shot at this life.
