"The Wedding Party." Offbeat indie film.

I really enjoyed this movie. It started just before the ceremony and took you through the reception. It's about a wedding where just about everything goes wrong. And the interesting thing is, the movie was filmed in one take, which I didn't notice until about a third of the way into it. Here's my review and a trailer. BTW, it's streaming in Netflix. Well worth watching.

I felt like an attendee just wandering around the reception - crashing one conversation, then another - what a neat approach.

It must have been a director's nightmare.

Until about 15 minutes into the film. It was pretty subtle.
