Contest! Win Tickets to 'While We're Young' in Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton, and Winnipeg

Readers in Toronto and Vancouver had great things to say about Noah Baumbach's While We're Young after last month's sneak peek, and readers in the rest of Canada now get their turn to catch Baumbach's latest starring Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts. While We're Young expands April 24 from Elevation Pictures, but if you want to attend a sneak peek in Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton or, you are in luck! Answer the trivia below to win tickets!


Synopsis: Ben Stiller and Naomi Watts are Josh and Cornelia Srebnick, happily married middle- aged members of New York’s creative class. They tried to start a family and were unable to—and have decided they’re okay with that. But as Josh labors over the umpteenth edit of his cerebral new documentary, it’s plain that he has hit a dry patch and that something is still missing.  

Enter Jamie (Adam Driver) and Darby (Amanda Seyfried), a free-spirited young couple, who are spontaneous and untethered, ready to drop everything in pursuit of their next passion—retro board games one day, acquiring a pet chicken the next. For Josh, it’s as if a door has opened back to his youth—or a youth he wishes he once had.  

It’s not long before the restless forty-somethings, Josh and Cornelia, throw aside friends their own age including Beastie Boy Adam Horovitz in a sly supporting role—to trail after these young hipsters who seem so plugged in, so uninhibited, so Brooklyn cool. “Before we met,” Josh admits to Jamie, “the only two feelings I had left were wistful and disdainful.” But is this new inspiration enough to sustain collaboration and friendship with a couple twenty years Josh and Cornelia’s junior?

While We’re Young is Noah Baumbach’s cross-generational comedy of manners about aging, ambition, and success, as well as a moving portrait of a marriage tested by the invading forces of youth. No film has better captured the weird, upended logic of urban sophisticates: the older ones embracing their iPads and Netflix, the young ones craving vinyl records and vintage VHS tapes.
