"The whole genesis of that scene was, you know, Judd and I really don't like to put anything in a movie that's just there for laughs. But Feig says that pushing the envelope wasn't the point. The scene most frequently referenced in discussions of the movie involves food poisoning at a wedding dress shop - a virtuoso set piece of scatological humor that has become the focal point for both the celebrations and criticisms of the movie. You talk about the stuff that's driving you crazy and the guys or your job or whatever it is, but at some point you just end up laughing and being stupid." "What I love about it is you really see what it's like when two good friends get together. "We talked about it for a long time in rehearsal and we really wanted to establish that this is a bit of a ritual, that these women get together and without explaining it ad nauseam, that they're really there for each other," Rudolph adds. "It's just so alive and it feels not like these movies sometimes can feel because they get very overwritten and you lose that spontaneity that happens in real life," he says. "So the chemistry that they have, because they are friends from SNL and they've known each other, just comes through so easily."įeig adds that the film's opening scene, set in a diner where the two friends trade jokes and advice, was the result of letting Rudolph and Wiig improvise for hours. Because there's nothing worse than that turgid dialogue like, 'Oh Annie, I've known you for 20 years,' " Feig says. "It was a real no-brainer for us to have Maya in this because we knew the whole movie hinged on the friendship between Kristen and Maya's characters and so, you can obviously cast, there are great actresses, obviously, who can summon that up, but we wanted to make sure that there was that familiarity and that friendship between them that you don't need to write to. "I was like, 'I wanna be in this movie!' "įeig says that desire wasn't a problem for the film's producers. And she and Annie just wrote this really funny script that just had these great fleshed-out characters," Rudolph says. "Boy, when I read it, you know, I know Kristen's voice so well and I love her writing and I love her take on things. Speaking with All Things Considered's Michele Norris, both Rudolph and Feig said that the film was something they both immediately wanted to be a part of. The film revolves around the way the relationship between two best friends changes after Rudolph's Lillian tells Wiig's Annie that she's gotten engaged. It was there that Rudolph met Kristen Wiig, the star and co-screenwriter of the movie, along with Annie Mumolo. The bride in Bridesmaids is played by the veteran comedian Maya Rudolph, who appeared for nine seasons on Saturday Night Live before leaving the show in 2007.

And while audiences weren't sure if it was going to be a layer of pink paint on blue humor, it stood wonderfully on its own two high heels. Yes, it was a Judd Apatow flick - he produced the film, which was directed by his longtime collaborator Paul Feig - only unlike most of the producer's male-populated coming-of-age comedies, all the starring roles in Bridesmaids were filled by women. The second biggest movie in the country last weekend - the biggest if you don't count sequels to films based on theme-park rides - had all the ingredients of a popular comedy: debauchery, lifelong buddies and gratuitous flatulence. The cast of Paul Feig's Bridesmaids: Melissa McCarthy (from left), Ellie Kemper, Rose Byrne, Wendi McLendon-Covey, Maya Rudolph and co-writer Kristen Wiig.
