When Mona Friedman (Julianne Moore) is cast in a bit part at a small community theater, she transforms from a shy, unassuming housewife into a zealous method actor willing to do anything to protect the artistic integrity of her marginal role—even if it means waging war against the show's domineering director (Paul Giamatti). Directed by Jesse Eisenberg and starring Julianne Moore, Paul Giamatti, and Halle Bailey.
