Bachelorette

Writer and director Leslye Headland made her feature debut with this comedy about female bonding and rivalry. Three friends are shocked to find out that their overweight friend is getting married which sends them on a journey of self-discovery while trying to sabotage the wedding. Headland taps into the female psyche of entitlement that's rooted in superficiality more than substance allowing the talented cast dive into the characters with hilarious results. Kirsten Dunst stars along with Rebel Wilson, Lizzy Caplan and Isla Fisher with winning performances allowing them to shine. The supporting cast includes James Marsden, Adam Scott and Ann Dowd. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
