Now playing in limited release is director Jason Reitman’s (Up in the Air) latest feature, Men, Women & Children.  Starring Ansel Elgort, Dean Norris, Adam Sandler, Rosemarie DeWitt, Judy GreerJ.K. SimmonsElena Kampouris, Timothée ChalametOlivia CrocicchiaDennis Haysbert, and the voice of  Emma Thompson, the drama follows the loosely connected stories of a group of teenagers and their parents as they attempt to navigate life in the digital age.  Loaded with great performances and a smart script, Men, Women & Children is able to tap into the zeitgeist of our tech-obsessed culture yet it doesn't feel pedantic or forced.  It was definitely one of my favorite films at this year's Toronto International Film Festival.  For more on Men, Women & Children, read Matt's review, watch some clips or the trailer, or click here for all our previous coverage.

While at TIFF, I landed an exclusive video interview with Jennifer Garner.  She talked about the cool way she was cast, how the film isn't preachy and captures what's going on right now, if the story/script changed during production, her great run of films at TIFF, working with Al Pacino in Imagined (which now might be called Danny Collins), and more.

Jennifer Garner:

  • How she's had a great run of films at TIFF
  • Talks about the cool way she was cast in the film.
  • How the film isn't preachy and captures what's going on right now.
  • How did the script change along the way?
