Adapted from Maria Semple’s runaway bestseller, Richard Linklater’s latest film is an inspiring and deeply felt comedy about a loving mom who seizes the chance to reconnect with her creative passions after years of sacrificing herself for her family. Bernadette’s leap of faith takes her on an epic journey that jump-starts her life and leads to her triumphant rediscovery.
Bernadette Fox (Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett) was a widely-renowned architect. Now, after a few career disappointments, she’s shifted her priorities to raising a passionately curious daughter and occasionally tormenting her persnickety neighbor (Kristin Wiig, Bridesmaids). But when things start getting too desperately domestic, she climbs out the bathroom window and ends up on the far side of the world. With a magnificent performance by Blanchett and a supporting cast featuring Billy Crudup, Emma Nelson, Judy Greer, and Laurence Fishburne, Where’d You Go Bernadette is a psychological portrait of a complicated, intelligent (and hilarious) woman, and a heartfelt meditation on the creative life.
