Plot summary for
The Private Lives of Pippa Lee (2009)
At fifty, Pippa Lee positively glows with female serenity, the devoted wife of a brilliant publisher thirty years her senior, proud mother of successful twins and a lovely and adored friend and neighbor. But, when her husband spontaneously decides that they should leave New York for a retirement home as a "pre-emptive strike against decrepitude," and has an affair with someone even younger than she is, Pippa finds her beatific persona unraveling in alarming ways. The truth is, the gracious woman of the present day has seen more than her fair share of the wild side. She has finally found love and security in a family of her own. And now, that cozy world, too, is in danger. Written by Pippa Lee LLC and Elevation Filmworks LLC

Bringing this from the news thread.

Robin Wright Penn starts tomorrow. Keanu's doesn't start until may because he has less scenes to film. Also Blake Lively was on set today.

I would have to say Robin Wright Penn and Blake Lively are in the movie about equal amounts of time. If anything Robin is in it a bit more. There are a lot of flashback scenes. I liked the script, it was a good read. Mostly they will be filming near Danbury, CT at their stage.

I think the storyline sounds really interesting. she'll be so much fun as a maneater!

I'm excited to see her play a gritty bad girl. Looks wise she's perfect for the part since she has a strong resemblance to Robin Wright Penn.

Lisa2011 · 04-19-2008, 02:27 AM

yes, they definitely chose two fitting actresses. its going to be great.

plus, young Pippa reminds me somehow of "oh-so-bad-old!Serena".

sofiab · 04-19-2008, 02:38 AM

I wonder who's the actor who will be her love interest. The only two males on the list are Keanu and Arkin and they're both too old for her. Arkin could be her grandpa.

Lisa2011 · 04-19-2008, 02:48 AM

good question. I of course would love Keanu, but yeah, it would really be a bit weird. but maybe Pippa wants old, mature guys? who knows! ^^

sofiab · 04-20-2008, 03:12 AM

It looks like young Pipa marries a much older guy, so I guess Keanu will play the role.

I've reached 500 posts, I'm a dedicated fan now! Considering that I've started posting in March it means I'm spending way too much time here. LOL

Congrats.
