U Up?

The Rom-Com That Could Never Be Made Today


Listen Later

In this Friday Feels episode of U Up?, Jordana and Jared dive into the chaotic brilliance of the 90s rom-com My Best Friend’s Wedding. They unpack the iconic “Say a Little Prayer” scene and ask why George isn’t the real lead?! George is loyal, hilarious, and flies to Chicago twice with zero expectations. Jared jokes he’d do the same for Jordana! The two debate who the true villain is: manipulative Julianne or emotionally unavailable Michael. They also question why everyone in the movie is kissing on the lips, including Kimberly and her dad. Through it all, they explore how the film’s dated relationship norms still spark modern-day debates about friendship, insecurity, and love, especially through the performances of Julia Roberts, Dermot Mulroney, Cameron Diaz, and Rupert Everett.
