Enough Said (2013 Nicole Holofcener & scr)

Julia-Louis Dreyfus starts dating divorced James Gandolfini, unaware that he's the ex of her new buddy Catherine Keener. When she finds out, rather then telling anyone, she begins to pump her for inside info ('like doing a Trip Advisor on him' she says) which begins to sour the relationship (particularly at an awkward dinner party with friends Toni Collette and Ben Falcone). Both the couple also have daughters about to head off for high school, Tavi Gevinson and Eve Hewson.

Unusual romantic drama from the uneven Holofcener feels real. Good performances, little details.
