After everything in her life falls to pieces, including her marriage to wealthy businessman Hal (Alec Baldwin), elegant New York socialite Jasmine (Cate Blanchett) moves into her sister Ginger’s (Sally Hawkins) modest apartment in San Francisco to try to pull herself back together again.

Blue Jasmine is expected to join the likes of Vicky Cristina Barcelona and Midnight in Paris as a modern Woody Allen classic, though it differs vastly in style. Other players include Louis C.K., Peter Sarsgaard, and Andrew Dice Clay in a surprising comeback. Opening this Friday, July 26th, in New York and LA.
