The movie had premiered to rave reviews from the critics at the 2017 Cannes Film Festival. The filmmaker followed it up with “Marriage Story”, starring Driver and Scarlett Johansson in the lead. The critically-lauded movie was nominated for six Academy Awards at the 2020 Oscars, including two for Baumbach.
