Quote:
"In Bridal Shower, director Sandy Wilson and her crew film the proceedings of an improvised bridal shower. The detail is perfect: the bee-hive hairdos, catty conversations, boredom and giggles, the greedy onslaught on the presents and cakes, the soft-core pornography implicit in the honeymoon jokes. Question: It's real all right, but is it fair? A memorable last shot: a Barbie Doll, with naked buttocks, stuck in a gooey heap of green and yellow cake."
