Please Give: This is another smart comedy from Nicole Holofcener (Love, Actually) starring the irreplaceable Catherine Keener. Keener and husband Oliver Platt are waiting for the demise of the detestable neighboring nonagenarian so they can expand their Manhattan apartment. Holofcener, a master at intelligent, character-driven comedy, has a Best Picture Oscar in her, but not this time – good, but not great.
