An Unmarried Woman

Paul Mazursky · 1978

Erica Benton’s marriage ends abruptly when her husband leaves for another woman. Over the next months in Manhattan, she navigates divorce, dating, motherhood and self-redefinition without grand declarations or easy answers. Directed by Paul Mazursky and anchored by Jill Clayburgh’s precise, unsentimental performance, the film observes the quiet recalibration of identity with patience and psychological fidelity.
