Rachel Getting Married gets better the further you get away from it... Kinda like a wedding itself. You remember it with growing fondness later. Even if you
already loved it.
<--- director and starMy friends
Rob and
Joe are also firmly stationed in the
possibly Best of the Year camp. Joe even believes it's a
Lost in Translation, a small beauty of a film that people respond to in real and personal ways -- i.e. he thinks it could have a similar Oscar run in it. We were both feeling "protective" of it against
its naysayers which Joe believes is a good sign of people rallying around it in the upcoming awards season. He may have a point. I'm not as optimistic due to its idiosyncracies and modesty but I'm hoping he's right. I'll be so glad to be wrong!
