One hour, 53 minutes wasted or "Rachel Getting Married"

Admittedly I'm late to cultural happenings, but my wife and I just watched this on a very chilly, rainy, perfect for watching a movie afternoon.

Ugh...

What is it about the love affair Hollywood has for these stream of consciousness (sp?) movies?

WELL

Any movie which generates such a strong feeling is probably worth watching.

For free, on cable, with an easy escape route. The cats need feeding, or the Bored needs checking.

It gets a 7.2 at IMDB so it gets its audience, probably female who are happy to have an "indie" feel to their film rather than getting clunked with the usual Necessary Plot Events of Hollywood romantic comedy. Let's see, something like Boy gets girl/has girl, insane sister shows up and attacks boy, boy realizes he doesn't want to give up his insane side for pure domesticity, and leaves with third girl who brings together the best qualities of both sisters....

I think Flybrick mighta liked that one better, though.

(I hope I haven't divined the actual plot of THIS movie, although I doubt it....)
