The Business: Q&A with PRIVATE LIFE
Q&A with Kayli Carter and writer-director-producer Tamara Jenkins of PRIVATE LIFE who is nominated for three 2019 Film Independent Spirit Awards: Best Screenplay, Best Director, and The Bonnie Award. Moderated by Bruce Fretts, New York Times Contributing Writer.
The moving new comedy from Academy Award®-nominated filmmaker Tamara Jenkins (The Savages, Slums of Beverly Hills), PRIVATE LIFE is a bracingly funny and often emotional examination of the unpredictability of modern marriage. Desperate to start a family, Manhattan-based writer Rachel (Kathryn Hahn) finds herself descending deeper and deeper into the insular world of assisted reproduction and domestic adoption with her loving husband Richard (Academy Award®-nominee Paul Giamatti). Just as the two feel they are at the end of their middle-aged rope, an unexpected surprise in the form of college dropout Sadie (Film Independent Spirit Award-nominee Kayli Carter) enters their lives and opens their world to new possibilities.
