Muriel’s Wedding (1994) Directed by P. J. Hogan

My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars


Disjointed thoughts from my first time watching Muriel’s Wedding:

1. Why have I never heard of this masterpiece before now?!!! I mean, it’s one of Ridley Scott’s favorite movies, for crying out loud!


2. Honestly, I only decided to watch this because I saw “ABBA” in the description. I have the same taste in music as Muriel—that is to say, great taste in music.


3. I did NOT expect to be a sobbing mess by the end of this weird Aussie fever dream!!!!!


4. I think the scenes of Muriel’s mum at the wedding and standing in the kitchen are going to haunt me until the day I die!!!!!!! 💔
