Description

As we approach Amy Adams' first Oscar nomination, we're forced to endure one more misguided indie. In the 2005 comedy Standing Still, she plays another bride-to-be, Elise, who is celebrating her upcoming nuptials with her friends, the worst people you've ever met. We're joined by writer and Podcast Like It's... co-host Phil Iscove to talk about Amy standing out in an ensemble, and how this movie defied our low expectations—in a bad way. Plus: the impact of the Crying Dawson meme, the most nonsensical way to prepare salad, and how Hollywood did Mena Suvari dirty.
