My Big Fat Greek Wedding

My Big Fat Greek Wedding1.jpeg“My Big Fat Greek Wedding” A Greek Chick Flick!
Network:TBS Friday Jan. 4th@ 9pm, Sat. Jan. 5th@12:45pm
Director:Joel Zwick
MPAA Rated:PG
Starring:Nia Vardalos, John Corbett

Toula Portokalos (Nia Vardalos) is a young, single Greek woman from Chicago who longs for anything but the ordinary day-to-day life in her parent’s Greek restaurant. With constant pressure from her parents, relatives and peers Toula feels her life will not be complete unless she meets their expectations-1.) Get Married 2.) Get married to a nice Greek boy!
Toula in an attempt to break out of the monotony enrolls in college. She soon meets and charms a non-Greek man, Ian Miller (John Corbett). An Engagement follows, prenuptial chaos ensues .My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2.jpeg

This film is a true ugly duckling story. We watch Toula transform throughout the movie both physically and emotionally. This movie is so funny too! The Greek wedding is over the top *Gaudy* to say the least but charming. It is wonderful to see a wedding that isn’t so stuffy and the guest are having a blast.
This movie not only starred Nia Vardalos but was also written by the star. The movie was also produced by power-couple Tom Hanks & Rita Wilson.
Enjoy this wonderful Greek Bridal Chick Flick!

“The Sweetest Thing”

images.jpeg“The Sweetest Thing”
Network: Oxygen Friday at 7pm/6C & Friday at 9pm/8C
Director: Roger Kumble
MPAA Rating:PG-13(TV) Originally rated R
Starring: Cameron Diaz, Christina Applegate, Selma Blair

Cameron Diaz plays Christina a young, free woman with a very guarded heart. She dates like a man and is enjoying herself. But one night at a trendy nightclub Christina meets her match, Peter. Peter is in town(SanFran) for only one night and gives christina his number. Christina not wanting to admit her interest decides not to call and spends the rest of the movie in self-reflection. Determined to see her best friend happy, Courtney(Applegate) takes Christina on a road trip to Peter’s hometown in search of the man of her dreams.sweetest thing.jpeg

I have a love -hate relationship with this movie. On the one hand, I love a movie with girl bonding, road trips, missed opportunities, and cute men. However, I have never like the vulgarity of this movie. I have seen the theatrical version and it is pretty bad. The edited for tv version is a little better.
I read recently that this movie is based on writer’s Nancy Pimental friendship with Kate Walsh. Yep, Kate Walsh who plays Dr. Addison Montgomery on Gray’s Anatomy. I am assumming if this is true that Kate is the character of Christina played by Cameron Diaz. Pretty interesting tid-bit there. Who knew Chick Flicks were really based on true-life!

One of the greatest Chick Flicks of the 80’s!

Diane Keaton plays J.C. Wiatt a successful career driven woman living in Manhattan. Known as the “Tiger Lady” among her colleagues, J.C. is married to her work. A sudden inheritance from a distance cousin finds J.C. excited that she may come into a substantially amount of money. Maybe enough to buy that country home she been dreaming of! Shockingly, the inheritance is in the form of an orphaned baby girl!? J.C. finds herself torn between raising the girl or giving her up for adoption. Her career mindset leans towards the latter, but her heart the former. Eventually J.C. looses her job because of demands of motherhood. Forced to make a new life for herself, J.C. decides to go ahead and buy that country home in Vermont and in doing so embarks (accidentally) on a new career path making gourmet baby food. J.C. finds herself in the end loving motherhood, finding romance and having major success with her new business venture. So much so, that her former colleagues want to buy her business out.
