Synopsis

Maggie is a thirty-something New Yorker who, without success in finding love, decides now is the time to have a child on her own. But when she meets John, a married novelist, Maggie falls in love. Maggie kickstarts a new plan that catapults her into a nervy love triangle with John and his wife…

Our take

Intellectual and romantic conundrums wittily collide in Rebecca Miller’s pitch-perfect New York comedy, a remarkable gem from Greta Gerwig’s acting career. Delicately structured around a revolving door of relationships, Maggie’s Plan smartly reimagines contemporary motherhood and the modern family.
