 The central screwball-comedy section set in the Connecticut mansion divided critics.While conceding that the film's ending "resolves things on a basically satisfying, quasi-poignant note," Todd McCarthy in "The Hollywood Reporter" stated that the "inconsistency of the approach overall, combined with Gerwig's maximum voltage performance, is disconcerting, even off-putting".Amy Nicholson, writing for "LA Weekly", praised the casting of the section, and in particular the performance of Heather Lind, but found that the "clumsy" sequence "stops the movie cold".
