		<description><![CDATA[Is there room for Greta Gerwig in today’s mainstream Hollywood? I finally caught up with the Noah Baumbach movie, “Frances Ha,” and was charmed by its warm and sometimes romantic take on an aspiring 27-year-old New York City artist trapped in a period of economic distress. The movie was shot in beautiful black-and-white which suggests<a class="moretag" href="http://blog.ctnews.com/meyers/2013/06/19/29248/"> &#160;Read More</a>]]></description>
