if you're an anne hathahater because she's """too perfect""" you gotta watch her performance in this & prepare to repent

hating anne hathaway? never felt that, never experienced that emotion

This is a movie I love very dearly. It is also listed on Letterboxd as the favorite film of my friend and biggest fan, Hunter Lurie, who sadly passed away on July 3rd at the too-young age of 27. I wanted to commemorate him here because he was a frequent presence and contributor to Letterboxd. Hunter loved, loved, LOVED movies. Maybe you will take the time to read some of the things he has written here. R.I.P. Hunter - PH

‪Ebertfest inherently heightens emotions by being a celebration of its namesake but I still wasn’t ready for how much Rachel Getting Married absolutely wrecked me. Thought of Roger, Jonathan, my kids, my parents - it’s such a beautiful, powerful film. One of my faves.‬

Imagine hating on Anne Hathaway???? it must've been really difficult for those actors...

demme does dogma / anne hathaway under the influence / i had to pause this halfway thru cause it gave me a panic attack and made me cry a lot / but also it made me feel good in a way only demme can / every movie should have a dishwasher-loading competition scene

I debated what I was going to rate this film, I absolutely adore Anne Hathaway and loved her performance of the recovering sister. There were parts that made me cringe (perhaps why I’ve given this a slightly lower rating). But I loved the feeling of family throughout and the storyline between the father and two sisters was particularly powerful. 

Also side note can we see more goth Hathaway please because I was loving the eyeliner, jagged bob cut and grey wardrobe tones.

now THAT's a Marriage Story

An allllright time. 

A very real movie. From the purposefully dull colors, to the switching between professional and amateur cameras, and of course the dialogue. It felt like a dark home video at times. 

It certainly doesn’t make for the most interesting or entertaining of watches. The plot flows pretty much the way you’d expect it to. The real take away is how close the film gets to feeling like a home video instead of an actual film. Also the use of uncertainty when it came to diegetic music v non-diegetic was very well done. I was relieved when the step-mom told them to stop playing. 

Anne Hathaway is good but this role really doesn’t suit here. 

Loading the dishwasher being a plot point encompasses this film pretty well. 

Netflix

Noah Baumbach who?! Never heard of him

a perfect rainy day film. so much empathy throughout too, really feel for everybody throughout the whole thing

boy oh boy are wedding weekends exhausting though

I wil fight for your right most brilliant underrated Anne Hathaway performances even if white peoples in sari make me uncomfortable

I know everyone’s talking about the Marriage Story argument scene rn but can we talk about the argument scenes in this gem? Holy moly

When I was 12 I went into blockbuster w my dad and I saw this movie everywhere. And then I continued to see it every Friday for the next couple of months. I had no idea what it was about, only that it started Anne Hathaway, and that I craved to watch it. Anyway, 12 yr old Emma had bad first impressions/judging movies by their cover on adult movies.
