The week’s openings redux: ‘Lady Bird’

And the adjustment to the movie schedule is: Yes, Christmas is on the list, as is Greta Gerwig ‘s most recent, critical darling of an arthouse movie. In addition to the films listed below, the week’s movies include:

Wednesday

“The Man Who Invented Christmas” : Ever imagine how Charles Dickens dreamed up “A Christmas Carol”? This film provides a plausible answer. God bless us, every one.

“Lady Bird” : Saoirse Ronan stars as an independent-minded, high-school senior who lurches toward adulthood in this comedy written and directed by Greta Gerwig. Take that, Noah Baumbach .

That’s the list. So go, see a movie. And enjoy.
