Directed by Jonathan Demme • 2008 • United States
Starring Anne Hathaway, Rosemarie DeWitt, Bill Irwin
When Kym (Anne Hathaway) returns to the Buchman family home for the wedding of her sister, Rachel (Rosemarie DeWitt), she brings a long history of personal demons, family conflict, and tragedy along with her. With her biting one-liners and flair for bombshell drama, Kym soon threatens to turn what should be a joyous weekend into a full-blown family crisis. At once tender, painfully honest, and incisively funny, RACHEL GETTING MARRIED abounds with the rich and eclectic characters director Jonathan Demme specialized in creating, brought to life by a virtuoso ensemble cast.
