Robin Wright Penn and Blake Lively ("Gossip Girl") share the title role in this drama, Pippa being a woman thrust into a midlife crisis by her much-older husband's ( Alan Arkin) decision that they should relocate to a retirement home. Her rebellion unlocks memories of her colorful past – a cue for flashbacks that feature Lively – and a liaison with a younger man. Julianne Moore, Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, Maria Bello and Monica Bellucci also are in writer-director Rebecca Miller's impressive cast. *** (R: AS, N, P) (Also on Blu-ray)
