Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.
In this special Valentine’s Day episode, we’re tickled lavender to be talking about P.J Hogan’s romantic comedy My Best Friend’s Wedding, one of the most successful films of 1997. With a screenplay written by Ronald Bass, who had won an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for the Dustin Hoffman/ Tom Cruise vehicle Rain Man nine years before, this saw Julia Roberts solidify her status as the most bankable actress working in Hollywood and won Rupert Everett British Supporting Actor of the Year at the London Critics Circle Film Awards. Tonight we’ll be marching into the karaoke bar with Kimmy, played by Cameron Diaz, Michael, played by Dermot Mulroney, George, played by Rupert Everett and, of course, Jules, played by Julia Roberts. Is this the most tangled web of balloon ribbons in romcom history? Let’s crack open this baby. We should have stopped in all our evil plotting to have that manicure, but it's too late now.
