Noah Baumbach's "Greenberg": "an outstanding L.A. movie" featuring Musso and Frank



Variety's Todd McCarthy says "Greenberg" has probably the longest scene ever shot at Musso and Frank, and is "an outstanding L.A. movie," that strikes "a fine balance between the beauty and the blight, the ease and the hassle, the luxury and the basic, the stimulating and the banal." It opens March 26 through Focus Features.

I saw a coming attraction of "Greenberg" yesterday. I immediately recognized Musso's in a couple of quick scenes!!

Hopefully the movie helps out Musso and Frank. It's got to be hard to stand out in Hollywood at this point.

I was a fan of The Squid and the Whale. I'm interested to see how Greenberg compares.

Oh definitely looking forward to watching this film. I like Baumbach's work (Margot at the Wedding, Squid and the Whale). I also love when the city of LA is featured. I read a piece recently that they're under new ownership.

If you take a look at the trailer, you can definitely recognize the corner of Cochran and Third in the Miracle Mile district (SK Donuts?)...It's probably where Ben Stiller's underachieving character lives!!!!
