""Rachel Getting Married" -- A Movie to delight in

"Rachel Getting Married" is Jonathan Demme's finest work in some time. About a flawed and frayed women returning home from drug and alcohol rehab for her sister's wedding, I can't recommend this great film strongly enough.

Altman-esque in its nuances and intricacies, "Rachel" invites the viewer into this particular family's life headfirst. Anne Hathaway is incredible as the main character; brave yet fearful, disclosing painful truths while still holding ontu old lies, she is a brute force object that carries the film from beginning to end.

The rest of the cast is first rate.

Simply one of the best movies of 2008.
