Barbie

New Release
Directed by Greta Gerwig
With Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, Ariana Greenblatt

To live in Barbie Land is to be a perfect being in a perfect place. Unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you’re a Ken…

Academy Award-nominated writer-director Greta Gerwig (Lady Bird, Little Women) brings redoubtable wit and wild creativity to one of the most iconic figures in pop culture. Margot Robbie stars as Barbie alongside Ryan Gosling’s Ken and a stacked ensemble (including America Ferrera, Will Ferrell, Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, and Rhea Perlman) in this delightfully surreal tour de force, co-written by Gerwig and Noah Baumbach (Marriage Story, The Squid and the Whale). As Barbie ventures outside the confines of her pastel playland, the beloved, picture-perfect doll finds herself pondering life, humanity, and her own complicated legacy in our precarious real world. Channeling classical Hollywood musicals and the vivid fantasias of Powell and Pressburger and Jacques Demy alike, Barbie is a madcap, dreamlike delight from an incomparable, risk-taking filmmaker.
