Best Thing

Not the Best or Worst Film about Weddings!

I have to say that this film was the only copy left at my video store before it went bust. I love Jane Lynch. She's just brilliant in all her performances on television and film. In this film, she plays Nora Stelmack, an unhappily unsatisfied wife, to Dick Stelmack. Dick and Nora are assigned as Pre-Cana counselors to another couple about to tie the not. Brian Callem is great in his role as the nervous groom to be and his bride is fine in her role. Actually, Jane Lynch really steals the scenes in this film. While this film is a small budget but shot entirely on location in Baltimore, Maryland, I can't forget Cynthia Harris who is terrific as mother of the bride. She's another great actress as well. Bryan Callum is best known for his time on MAD-TV. Anyway, it's not all slapstick and easy bathroom humor. In fact, the film is more serious and funny at about the same time. I still like the film. It has it's humorous moments without being x-rated but still needs the mature audience.
