WHAT MAISIE KNEW
directed by Scott McGehee
and David Siegel
|
|
| MAISIE TRAVELS WIDE |
| Featuring Julianne Moore, Alexander Skarsgård and Steve Coogan, WHAT MAISIE KNEW is based on a contemporary interpretation of the classic Henry James novel, and set in present day New York City. The story centers on Maisie, an unwitting six-year-old girl enmeshed in the bitter divorce of
her mother, a rock and roll icon, and her father, a charming but distracted art dealer. As Maisie is shuttled back and forth between them, she comes to rely more and more on her parents’ new companions. It is a touching comedic drama set against the chaos and complexity of modern marriage and family. |
