You Again is a cute movie featuring Jamie Lee Curtis and Kristen Bell. Kristen is a total geek in high school and was bullied constantly. After going to college, growing up, and gaining confidence, she returns home for her brothers wedding. When she meets his fiancé, she realizes that she is the girl who bullied her all through high school!
Determined to show the brother the fiance’s true colors, she sabotages the rehearsal dinner and then some.
Turns out that Bell’s mother, Jamie Lee, also had a nemesis in high school who is the fiance’s Aunt.
The movie is predictable and corny but it was a cute movie.
Grey Gardens was actually a show on HBO that aired in 2009 featuring Drew Barrymore & Jessica Lange. Drew actually won a few awards for her role in this film. This is a completely different role for her, than we are used to seeing her play.I thought this story was strange. It's the story about the eccentric aunt and first cousin of Jackie Onassis (both named Edith Bouvier Beale aka "Big and Little Edie") raised as Park Avenue débutantes but who withdrew from New York society, taking shelter at their Long Island summer home, "Grey Gardens." As their wealth and contact with the outside world dwindled, so did their grasp on reality. They were reintroduced to the world when international tabloids learned of a health department raid on their home, and Jackie swooped in to save her relatives.
The fact that they were Jackie O relatives really was a tiny piece of this movie. I felt like that was the reason to watch this movie but it wasn't a strong enough tie-in. It was really a film about two crazy ladies who weren't even that funny; just strange. Skip this one.
