When Kym (Anne Hathaway - Golden Globe® Nominee, Best Actress, Motion Picture (Drama)), returns to the Buchman family home for the wedding of her sister Rachel (Rosemarie DeWitt), she brings a long history of personal crises, family conflict and tragedy along with her. The wedding couple's abundant party of friends and relations have gathered for a joyful weekend of feasting, music and love, but Kym - with her biting one-liners and flair for bombshell drama - is a catalyst for long-simmering tensions in the family dynamic. Filled with the rich and eclectic characters that remain a hallmark of Jonathan Demme's films, Rachel Getting Married paints a heartfelt, perceptive and sometimes hilarious family portrait.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

The film may upset some viewers, particularly those with family not in the habit of communicating. For the rest of us, engrossed in the event’s highs and lows, we revel in Demme’s capable hands and the pathos of his ceremony.

Married is a fascinating, yet flawed fly-on-the-wall familial drama.

It is basically a perfect film.

Demme and Squyres devote enough of the film's runtime to the wooly, recognizable chaos of a normal wedding that it puts the sore personal issues lurking in the background into stark relief.

It's easy to throw around the word masterpiece, particularly when any film that deviates from Hollywood's well-trodden path comes as so much of a relief. But, in its own small and unassuming way, Rachel Getting Married is just that.
