The perfect Thanksgiving movie doesn’t exis… Actually, never mind. We didn’t intend for Waitress (2007) to be turkey day-themed but when you have a movie centered around one of the most iconic holiday desserts the vibes are clear. This episode, we’re bringing on Danielle from No More Late Fees to talk about this indie darling. Hear us unpack all the deep layers of Adrienne Shelly’s last film before her passing, including motherhood, domestic violence, infidelity, and female friendships. We also gush over our shared love for Keri Russell, astrological charts, and obviously all the pies.
