A Festa de Casamento

Saw this on-line at the Vancouver Film Festival. First rate fun. All the elements needed for a great screw-ball comedy, including terrific performances from the four leads, great choreography and timing, lots of fun cameos from members of the large supporting cast, and much more. A very impressive piece of film-making by a first-time director, especially given (as we learned in the post-screen interview) that it was made in 17 days. Bravo.

Great acting, surprising and dramatic storyline, the storyline could be from a Almodovar movie. They could have made a telenovela serie out of it, I loved the characters. I highly recommend watching this movie.

I am Polish and consider myself very demanding regarding movies. I cannot stand Polish romantic comedies so I often avoid Polish productions.

This one was different. I started watching it accidentally while working on computer. That is how I watch lots of movies. TV set stand nearby and while working on my photographs I am portrait photographer I love watching movies. I gave it a chance........

I was fascinated with pace, rhythm, story, dialogues and plot. I felt like watching theater drama than a movie. It was hard to stop watching. The more you watch the faster rhythm. Music was good pace setter. Some drum solo and some sharp dialogues.

Casting was perfect. I loved watching them act. They had great script and story so they really enjoyed playing.

I have just learned that it was first movie by this director so more to expect. Some people who reviewed the movie say it was like Almodovar. I would say it was faster quicker and more dynamic in some moments.

And filming time 17 days!!! Fantastic.

I really loved it.

Cinematography, cast, acting, dialogues. Everything spot on. Fast paced and well directed debut. I wished there was a sequel because it was so much fun. Highly recommended.
