‘Lola Versus’
Before she starred in Frances Ha, Greta Gerwig played the titular Lola in Lola Versus. When we first meet Lola (an extremely relatable and likeable Greta Gerwig), she is a well-adjusted graduate student, living in a beautiful loft apartment with her artist fiancé. Perfect life, right? Wrong. Her fiancé dumps her weeks before their long-anticipated wedding, and Lola suffers a massive breakdown. With the help of her friends, Henry (Hamish Linklater) and Alice (co-screenwriter Zoe Lister-Jones), she attempts to rebuild her life but finds that successfully navigating the uncertain waters of dating and relationships is easier said than done.
