CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio film review, a perspective on “My Salinger Year,” a new release adaptation of the memoir of the same name by Joanna Rakoff. The Salinger is of course J.D. Salinger, the legendary author and recluse. In theaters and through VOD beginning March 5th, 2021.
“My Salinger Year” is set in the 1995. The poet/writer Joanna Rakoff, portrayed by up-and comer Margaret Whalley, takes a chance and leaves her California life and boyfriend behind in a move to New York City, and finds admin work at an older and once prestigious literary agency. The office is run by a tough-but-benign head honcho (Sigourney Weaver), and one of agency’s main clients is none other than a 76-year-old J.D.“Jerry” Salinger, legendary author of “Catcher in the Rye.” Joanna’s adventures and misadventures through that literary filter changes her life profoundly.
