Director Rebecca Miller defies this fantasy with her new film “Maggie’s Plan,” a wonderfully crafted film for the intelligentsia-sect that takes one woman’s quest of subverting modern romantic convention by artificial insemination, leading to a hilarious deconstruction of uncharted adult life. The woman with the plan is Maggie Hardin (Greta Gerwig), an independent, plaid-coat loving, thirty-something educator with babies on the brain. After complaining to her friends (played by the perfect comedic duo Bill Hader and Maya Rudolph) that she is incapable of loving someone for longer than six months, she decides that now is the time to start thinking about having children of her own, on her own, which leads her to a brilliant-but-miswired sperm donor (Travis Fimmel), who works as an artisan pickler.

Maggie thinks she’s found “the one” in John, despite him already being married to the stone cold intellectual Georgette Harding (Julianne Moore), which doesn’t stop an instantaneous affair. Flash forward a few years, and Maggie, now with a smiling infant girl, realizes the tangled web she’s woven when the reality of her life with John sets in and is nothing like she thought it would be. Rebecca Miller paints the portrait of a 21stcentury relationship in such a realistic way, where one’s expectations of certain things tend to trump reality. In Maggie’s case, she wanted a child and love, and at first, she thought she successfully constructed it. The dynamics that set the tone of the relationship in the beginning, however, quickly shift, drowning Maggie in the process. Her ideal relationship where both partners were artistically satisfied turns into a one-way street, where Maggie is the bridge over John’s troubled water. With such artsy hits as “Frances Ha” and “Mistress America,” Greta Gerwig has more or Photos by Peter Thornton Soldiers dressed in combat gear were all smiles and high fives for the kids. 2016 TORRANCE ELECTIONS Residents and Business Owners
