| is really supportive of the film. She read the book and the script and she's a wonderful person who is also a great actress, so hopefully in my next film I can have her play a part when it's not about her." I haven't come across any interviews in which Birbiglia's ex either confirms or denies her support, but it's not implausible that a happily married woman would be capable of such generosity.Why, then, does Birbiglia's movie rub me the wrong way? I can't help but compare him with Lena Dunham, creator of HBO's much-discussed show Girls, another rising young writer/director/actor whose work draws heavily from her life. Dunham's worst and most vulnerable moments frequently appear in some form on her show as well as in her movies and essays. In New York magazine,http://www.apollo13show.com/, Emily Nussbaum writes that much of the dialogue in Dunham's movie Tiny Furniture "came verbatim from her life, including those push-pull dynamics with un-boyfriends ... Those same guys were often maddeningly flattered by their portrayals." |
