If you're looking for a nice little movie for a lazy afternoon, you could do a lot worse than Waitress with Keri Russell and Andy Griffith. It's a light froth of a movie with a premise that feels fresh and manages to avoid taking you where you expect to go. Russell is the waitress of the movie's title and a pie maker of some renown. Married to an idiotically abusive husband, Russell has finally managed to save enough money to leave him and start her own pie shop. Until she turns up pregnant. While the movie doesn't gloss over the seeming impossibility of Russell's situation, it manages to do so with wry humor and a deft touch. The ending leaves a little something to be desired, but all in all I loved it.
Now where can I get some Old Joe's Horny Past Pie?
