My Salinger Year

Streaming video - 2020

New York in the 90s: Joanna (Margaret Qualley) gets hired as an assistant to Margaret (Sigourney Weaver), the stoic and old-fashioned literary agent of J. D. Salinger. Joanna's main task is processing Salinger's voluminous fan mail, but as she reads the heart-wrenching letters, she impulsively begins personalizing the responses. The results are both humorous and moving, as Joanna, while using the great writer's voice, begins to discover her own. Based on the memoir by Joanna Rakoff.
