Anne Hathaway is a proper film star and Jonathan Demme's direction is full of energy but it's not uch of a script it feels like an Australian movie with AH as a hot mess out of rehab for her sister's wedding. There's a lot of speeches and family stuff, and encounters. A romance with a fellow junkie is dispensed with very quickly - they root, that's it. There's a Past (Hathaway accidentally kileld her brother), some secrets (she's full of it), Rosemary de Witt is the sister gets upset. The cast includes Debra Winger and some vaguely familiar faces.
It's too long and too much of it is undercooked - the guy she hooks up with, the mother, the dad's girlfriend, the groom, the groom's family. There's so many speeches and music acts. I get that Demme loves his actors and extras but give them something to play.
Rewrite, please.
