A triumph of independent filmmaking, Lady Bird marked Greta Gerwig’s solo directorial debut and became one of the most celebrated films of the decade. Nominated for five Academy Awards—including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay—it also won the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture (Musical or Comedy), with Saoirse Ronan earning Best Actress honors for her unforgettable performance.

Set in early 2000s Sacramento, this heartfelt coming-of-age story follows Christine “Lady Bird” McPherson (Ronan) as she navigates her senior year of high school, longing for escape, independence, and a deeper connection with her strong-willed mother (Laurie Metcalf, in an Oscar-nominated role). Balancing humor and raw emotion, Lady Bird is a tender, funny, and deeply personal portrait of adolescence, family, and self-discovery.
