The CinePearl Take

The Squid and the Whale is a 2005 English film that blends coming-of-age, comedy and drama — expect growing up and finding one's place and laughs built on situation and character. Noah Baumbach directs and the script comes from Noah Baumbach. Owen Kline and Halley Feiffer are among the leads. Made in United States, it is a natural pick for anyone exploring English-language films. Released in 2005, it has had time to build an audience and word of mouth. At 81 minutes, it keeps a brisk pace.
