Couch Potato Pickings | Waitress, inventive pies, and a tragic tale

Waitress,Keri Russell,Cheryl Hines,Adrienne Shelley

 

Trapped in an abusive marriage, pretty southern waitress Jenna (Keri Russell) confides in fellow waitresses Becky (Curb Your Enthusiasm's Cheryl Hines) and Dawn (Adrienne Shelley), and expresses her emotions through her inventive pies.

Creative concoctions such as Jenna's 'I hate my husband pie', or  'I can't have no affair because it's wrong and I don't want Earl to kill me pie' are the highlights of this amusing movie.

Maybe I should bake my own pie to get in the mood for this film tonight.

With squirrels chucking apples at my lawn on a daily basis, I don't really have an excuse to use anything else for its filling (apples, not squirrels!!!). But what about its name...

Hmm, how about  'I wonder how many people will read this post pie'?

Waitress is showing on Film 4 today 17th August at 6.50pm
