The Contrarians

206 - Pt. 1 - My Best Friend's Wedding (CC)


Listen Later

Wait a minute, didn’t we JUST do this? A wedding movie from Aussie director PJ Hogan? Perhaps the most shameless example of a filmmaker selling out as quickly as they could, MY BEST FRIEND’S WEDDING was a massive box office and critical success, so in a way you can’t blame Hogan for going Hollywood. You can nitpick his sophomore effort to death, however, and that’s exactly what this episode is about. Join Alex & Julio as they welcome Julia Roberts back to the show to judge her love life as harshly as they can!
