Gretchen Mol looked every bit the radiant Hollywood ingénue at the NYFF premiere of her film Manchester by the Sea on Saturday.

Except the two-time SAG Award winner - dazzling in a white ankle-length dress - is a mother-of-two celebrating her 44th birthday next month.

The Mozart in the Jungle actress later joined her castmates at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall for a post-screening Q&A.
