REVIEW: “Jay Kelly” (2025)

Noah Baumbach’s newest film, “Jay Kelly,” definitely feels like a Baumbach movie, but it also does some interesting things differently. While his films usually take place in small, contained worlds, this one is much larger in scope. Instead of a deeply personal story, he’s told a much broader one. Even the way the film is made feels different, with a style reminiscent of classic Hollywood filmmaking.
