Romantic comedies often serve their purpose, giving teen-aged girls something to do on a Friday night -- and 20-something girls something to deny they did on a Friday night.
But, what if they didn't have to deny? What if they could drag their significant others to the theater without guilt? What if, on the way home, they could discuss the film without a hint of irony?
My friends, I give you Waitress.
Keri Russell is Jenna, a popular waitress and "gifted" pie-maker at a small-town, picture perfect diner. Cheryl Hines and Adrienne Shelly are her go-to gal pals, who lightheartedly guide the lovable protagonist through the hardships she encounters after discovering her no-good husband Earl (Jeremy Sisto) has impregnated her. This obviously complicates her pie-in-the-sky Earl Escape Plan. Is she going to have to suffer through a life with her oaf of a spouse?
