Bridesmaids

I'm in Seattle for the Seattle International Film Festival premier of my feature, The Off Hours. My greatest female friends are definitely in the Emerald city and I was lucky enough to see Bridesmaids with four of them.

Mel, Michelle, Megan, Tanya and I grabbed candy at 7 Eleven, mini bottles at the liquor store, filled our flasks and picked our word for the movie flask game. It seemed fitting to pick "Wedding" as our swig word, so we did.

We get to the theater, find our rad seats, sit and wait for the greatness that is Kristin Wiig, Maya Rudolph and Judd Apatow to start.

Kristin and Maya are hilarious. The ensemble cast is great and I'm a huge fan of Rose Byrne since I watched her in Get Him to the Greek. She's fabulous and insanely gorgeous and yet, able to pull of comedy like a knife slices through fruit.

I'm not sure who to thank for the John Hamm eye candy but he's the arrogant hottie in the film and he is a hottie. Chris O'Dowd is adorable. All the ladies fell in love with him by the end of the film including me.

Meanwhile, the word wedding is only said five times in the 2nd act of the film. We weren't swigging from our flasks and that isn't much of a drinking game, now is it? We immediately changed the word to "Lillian" which got the party started. I nearly choked to death at one point and had to spit my swig on the floor. Mel finished her flask before Wilson Phillips (who looked amazing, BTW.) made it to the wedding.

Good times.

The comedic moments are stellar and the cast is amazing. (can we talk about people shitting in the sink and puking on another persons head, who is also puking?)

Bridesmaids is RAD. You should see it. You can wait for Netflix or DVD, but you must see it with close friends. That's the most important ingredient.
