Sideways

Writer and director Alexander Payne delivered another terrific comedy with his fourth feature. After a man decides to marry, he embarks one last journey with his best friend into the wine country with hilarious consequences. Payne hit the mainstream with this film which went beyond cinema into popular culture affecting the sales of wine varietals but many didn't get the insider jokes which proved the power of cinema. Paul Giamatti and Thomas Haden Church star with terrific performances along with equally terrific Virginia Madsen and Sandra Oh. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
