Review: 'White Noise' makes Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig pretty easy to tune out

Adam Driver and writer-director Noah Baumbach follow their collaboration on the dour "Marriage Story" with a considerably quirkier Netflix movie in "White Noise," a faithful adaptation of Don DeLillo's 1985 novel that loses a great deal in translation. Baumbach's pandemic-inspired undertones resonate on that level, but it's played in such stilted fashion as to make "White Noise" pretty easy to tune out.
