The coexistence of wit and trauma has become even more apparent in the work of writer-director Noah Baumbach since his debut feature—



not just in his next two theatrical features, Mr. Jealousy (1997) and the Oscar-nominated The Squid and the Whale (2005), and in Wes Anderson’s The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004), which Baumbach helped to write, but also in eight of the nine short humor pieces he’s published to date in the New Yorker. 



Seven of these have appeared under the magazine’s rubric "Shouts and Murmurs," and in a way, those two kinds of utterances and their subtle, interactive relationship sum up Baumbach’s form of expressiveness: murmured wisecracks that seem calculated to stifle, delay, or else supercede assorted shouts and screams.
