I Will See This Rom/Com!
That’s very unusual, you know – me admitting that I will voluntarily see a romantic comedy. But when it stars Tina Fey and Paul Rudd how can I possibly resist? Answer, I can’t. I love them both. The film, Admission, was also directed by Paul Weitz, who is responsible for the completely delightful About a Boy. He makes rom/coms for people like me who don’t usually love the genre.
Admission has Fey starring as an Ivy League admissions officer talked into a recruiting visit to an alternative high school. An old classmate (Rudd) runs the school and Fey gets far more than she bargained for from the visit. There’s a lot more going on, and I’m not going to spoil it. But Lily Tomlin, Michael Sheen and Wallace Shawn are also in the cast – that plus the Fey/Rudd/Weitz combo ought to just about seal the deal. So I’ll just show you the trailer. A very nice publicist also sent me a behind the scenes featurette so I’ll share that with you, too! Oh, it’s good to be a Movie Rewind reader. The movie opens March 22nd. Enjoy!
Check out the trailer, the featurette, and my review.
