What is the Marriage Story?

Marriage Story follows Nicole (played by Scarlett) and Charlie Barber as they go through the motions of divorce.

The once-happy couple embark on separation proceedings after Charlie becomes a star director in a New York theatre, while his wife puts her acting career on hold to raise their son.

Ultimately, their relationship suffers as the two go down different paths, and lawyers – Laura and Ray – are called in to determine who claims sole custody of the boy.

Noah uses this film to depict the personal tragedy of divorce and what leads up to it, while also demonstrating that love and hate go hand-in-hand.
