BERLIN (AP) - February 14, 2010
Stiller plays a fortysomething man housesitting his brother's Hollywood home and struggling to reconnect with old friends. He is drawn into a relationship with his brother's personal assistant, played by Greta Gerwig.
The 44-year-old Stiller said ahead of the movie's premiere Sunday that his character "for a long time has felt like he had it all ahead of him and is really coming up against the fact that he doesn't."
He added: "I think that's just a part of being this age."
Baumbach wrote and directed 2005's "The Squid and the Whale." The new film is one of 20 in the Berlin festival's main competition.
