Whit Stillman’s Metropolitan offers a witty and arch glimpse into the lives of Upper East Side debutantes and their slightly aimless escorts during Christmas break. It's like The Breakfast Club, but with black-tie soirées instead of detention and ironic detachment and spirited Jane Austen debate...
