Whit Stillman and I must have the same taste in leading ladies. Greta Gerwig, the star of his latest film Damsels in Distress, was a past G.C. of mine and now, Carolyn Farina from his first film is my newest G.C.!

Posted on 16 April 2013 by Eric Burritt

Damsels in Distress is available in Denmark.  From the website filmguiden.no:

Denmark damsels dvd cover

Whit Stillman slo igjennom som en av de mest lovende amerikanske indie-auteurene på 90-tallet. Men etter hans strålende The Last Days of Disco (1998) sa det stopp for hans produksjon. Nå er han imidlertid endelig tilbake med en ny vittig og intelligent komedie som absolutt er på høyde med hans komediesuksesser fra 90-tallet.

Ekstramateriale • Commentary with Whit Stillman and Cast • An Evening with Damsels in Distress – Q & A with Whit Stillman and Cast • Damsels in Distress: Behind-the-Scenes • Deleted Scenes • Outtakes

Filmen har fått 11 års aldersgrense og har en varighet på 1 time og 35 minutter.
