Love, life, and lots of pie! In this episode of Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes are talking about Waitress (2007), the indie darling starring Keri Russell as a small-town waitress with a talent for baking and a life that’s anything but sweet.Full of charm, great performances, and pie, Waitress has built a loyal following over the years—even inspiring a hit Broadway musical! But does it still hold up? Mike Field and Mike Butler dive into the film’s performances, the relationship between Russell's character and Nathan Fillion's, and more. Butler will also get into the tragic story of writer/director Adrienne Shelly.So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.
