In Eleanor the Great, June Squibb brings to vivid life the witty and proudly troublesome 94-year-old Eleanor Morgenstein, who after a devastating loss, tells a tale that takes on a dangerous life of its own. Scarlett Johansson’s directorial debut is a comically poignant exploration of how the stories we hear become the stories we tell.

"At nearly 100 years old, Squibb is on a roll. Call it the Squibbaissance. Last year, she became an unlikely action hero in Thelma. Now she’ll make you cry in Eleanor."
"Scarlett Johansson’s Eleanor the Great is exactly the kind of conventional, performer-led film one would expect from an actor. It also has the jackpot combination of being tear-inducing and laugh-out-loud funny."
