Kara Holden adapted Caren Lissner's novel about a hyper-intelligent woman and her bids to become a human being, with help from her therapist Nathan Lane and father Gabriel Byrne. Had not heard of Salinger's 'Frannie and Zooey' (essentially two novellas).
Bel Powley is marvellous in the title role. Loved the long tracking shot take around NYC streets at night with her and William Moseley. With Vanessa Bayer, Colin O'Donoghue (college professor), Jason Ritter.
Not a great title, however. Frannie and Zooey may have been better, as the book is kind of key to things, though may have represented a copyright issue.
