Directed by Jonathan Demme, screenplay by Jenny Lumet, cinematography by Declan Quinn.
I confess: I am a big fan of Anne Hathaway. It began with Ella Enchanted, then the mountains of Genovia, and finally Agent 99. But not even the muse of the Bard could save Rachel Getting Married for me. Her acting---heck, all the acting---was superb; I really cared for and believed in the characters. And the cinematography really tore down that fourth wall. But . . . too little plot, too much confusion, and not enough communication. I spent half the running time trying to figure out what I was missing.
Ms. Hathaway: You did extremely well. Ms. Lumet: not so much.
