The Film was shot in the UK at Leavesden Studios in Hertfordshire.
It was released In July , and Gerwig went into cinemas to see the reaction and ensure audiences had The Best viewing - and Listening - Experience , she revealed.

She told film fans at the London festival that she'd grown up loving watching films in movie theatres.
" And I think that part of me always wanted to recreate that feeling from childhood of meeting in a dark room with a bunch of people. So it was so moving to me that that was The Thing that people experienced. "
She also thanked The Bbc for allowing her to use a short extract from its 1995 TV adaptation of Pride & Prejudice in her film.
