French Exit is headlined by the that magnetic chill of hers directly in mind. The movie adapted by Patrick deWitt from his 2018 novel of the same name is a tale about a classic, monied, New York City eccentric, the kind of person whose status is as obvious, in their utter aloofness to the world, as it is mysterious. Summing this up, somehow, with wonderfully caustic poise is Pfeiffer, who plays Frances Price: a widow on the verge of going broke.
