Though the stars of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee were walking the red carpet for the film months ago, the movie still won't hit US theaters until Nov. 27. From the trailer, it doesn't look half-bad, and it features some well-known actors like Robin Wright Penn, Julianne Moore, Alan Arkin, Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, and Blake Lively.
Robin Wright Penn and Blake Lively play older and younger versions of Pippa Lee, a woman who finds herself reflecting on her wild past when her much older husband suddenly decides that they should leave New York for a retirement home. The film is written and directed by Rebecca Miller, writer/director of The Ballad of Jack and Rose and writer of the Proof screenplay.
Pippa Lee looks like she's rather different from the character Lively's playing now in Ben Affleck's The Town, and she's certainly a far cry from Serena Van Der Woodsen. To see the Gossip Girl actress as an edgier, rebellious teen in The Private Lives of Pippa Lee, read more.

This looks interesting..a great cast for sure. IDK though, maybe its the music, but something in the trailer seems off.
1Definitely the music...something tells me they didn't have to pay royalties on the song, which means the studio probably won't spend very much marketing on it...which ultimately means it's gonna go straight to DVD
2"One thing this film seems to lack, however, is a strong narrative. At times, it feels like a loosely bound collection of anecdotes from Pippa's life. While each of these anecdotes have their own appeal and..."
It's supposed to be a good movie and I even read speculation that Robin Wright Penn is so good that wouldn't be surprising if she got an Oscar nom. The film's weakness is the aforementioned series of anecdotes...I think the trailer gives that weakness away which may make it less enticing.
But that's my opinion.
3Ohh...Rebecca Miller, that's Arthur Miller's daughter and Daniel Day Lewis' wife!
4I smell comeback for Robin Wright! so psyched for her
5Great cast for sure. Looks interesting.
6A tad bit of an overstatement, putting "from acclaimed filmaker Rebecca Miller". I think the acclaim comes more from her connections than her sparse film resume.
7this looks fantastic...
8I thinks this looks like a good role for Robin, but whoa!
9Blake's hands are huge.
I hate it when a movie could be fantastic, but commits suicide with loose plot and disorganization. Hopefully this will be good. Robin is a rockstar.
10The movie looks good but I didnt really like the trailer, the music seemed off.
11Interesting! Glad to see Monica Bellucci...
12What is with Brad Pitt producing movies of books I've read? This book was ok - but I can definitely see it being an interesting movie. I'll see it!
13Shes 5'10 is she supposed to have midget hands? Theyre just close to the camera
14I LOVED the book, and was a little worried about who they cast/how they are supposively changing some characters names, but the trailer looks interesting. I will definitely be making it to the theatre to see it.
