One Final Trailer for ‘You’re Cordially Invited’ Double Wedding Comedy

"Why can't we just celebrate together?" Prime Video has debuted a third and final fun trailer for the goofy comedy You're Cordially Invited, an ensemble wedding bash created and directed by filmmaker Nick Stoller (of Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Get Him to the Greek, The Five-Year Engagement, Neighbors 1 & 2, Bros). Streaming to watch later this week if anyone wants to drop in on the fun and join the parties (either one!). You're Cordially Invited follows a woman who is planning her sister's wedding, as well as the father of another bride-to-be. They discover that they are double-booked for their fancy destination wedding, so both parties decide to share the venue, but chaos and disaster await, of course. Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon star as the feuding hosts, with a fun cast including Geraldine Viswanathan, Meredith Hagner, Wesley Mann, Jimmy Tatro, Celia Weston, Leanne Morgan, Rory Scovel, and Keyla Monterroso Mejia. This is actually the best trailer yet - saving the best for last! Though I'm not sure why they didn't release this actually-funny trailer any earlier. It finally has plenty of legitimately amusing jokes. Here's the third & final trailer for Nicholas Stoller's You're Cordially Invited, direct from YouTube: […]

While the festival drifted off course in the 2010s, it's back on course in the 2020s, focusing on discoveries and little films from unknown filmmakers. Where the Wind Comes From is a Tunisian indie film made by a Tunisian filmmaker named Amel Guellaty 🇹🇳, making her feature directorial debut with this feature along with prolific work as a photographer in France and beyond. It's a charming, entertaining little indie flick that deserves to find an audience outside of Sundance with viewers from any country. Where the Wind Comes From is a road trip comedy following two Tunisian youngsters desperate to escape the country any way they really can - following as they drive to an art contest on Djerba. Where the Wind Comes From is written and directed by Tunisian filmmaker Amel Guellaty, making her first feature after two other award-winning shorts. It follows two rebellious Tunisians: 19-year-old Alyssa (played by Eya Bellagha) & shy […]

Revisiting The Red Shoes

Moira Shearer as Vicky Page.Black Narcissus is my favorite Michael Powell-Emeric Pressberger film--and I also think it's their masterpiece. But most critics and fans confer that "masterpiece" title on the duo's The Red Shoes (1948). I watched it m...
