Check the trailer for PLEASE GIVE which stars Amanda Peet, Oliver Platt, Rebecca Hall, Catherine Keener, Sarah Steele and is directed & written by Nicole Holofcener.

I love that trailer! And Catherine Keener is just so funny! Definitely a movie that I will have to check out in theaters.

Please Give Synopsis: Kate (Catherine Keener) has a lot on her mind. There’s the ethics problem of buying furniture on the cheap at estate sales and marking it up at her trendy Manhattan store (and how much markup can she get away with?). There’s the materialism problem of not wanting her teenage daughter (Sarah Steele) to want the expensive things that Kate wants. There’s the marriage problem of sharing a partnership in parenting, business, and life with her husband Alex (Oliver Platt) but sensing doubt nibbling at the foundations. And there’s Kate’s free—floating 21st century malaise—the problem of how to live well and be a good person when poverty, homelessness, and sadness are always right outside the door. Plus, there’s the neighbors: cranky, elderly Andra (Ann Guilbert) and the two granddaughters who look after her (Rebecca Hall and Amanda Peet). As Kate, Alex, and Abby interact with the people next door, with each other, and with their New York surroundings, a complex mix of animosity, friendship, deception, guilt, and love plays out with both sharp humor and pathos.

Please Give will be released to theaters on April 30, 2010 (limited). Watch the trailer below.
