Tame biggots

Jenny's Wedding (2015)

Written & directed by Mary Agnes Donoghue this film stars Katherine Heigl, Alexis Bledel, Tom Wilkinson and Linda Emond. A woman decides she wants to get married to her girlfriend and come out to her conservative parents.

This is the lightweight, apologists version of a coming out story that neither explores the depths or origins of homophobia. I found this to be a disappointing film and probably to some gay people it was patronising. Katherine Heigl does her best but the material is not up to much.


2/5
