After their counselling breaks down their agreement for an amicable divorce also disintegrates when Nicole hires feisty divorce lawyer Nora (Laura Dean) and Charlie retaliates with his own lawyers Bert (Alan Alda) and later Jay (Ray Liotta).
Baumbach is no stranger to divorce, his parents divorce was the inspiration for The Squid and the Whale, and he wrote Marriage Story after his divorce from actress Jennifer Jason Leigh.
