THE WEDDING PARTY

Brian De Palma, Wilford Leach & Cynthia Munroe, USA, 1969, Arrow Films, Arthouse

“THE WEDDING PARTY was shot by De Palma in his early twenties, but not released until six years later when one of its stars, Robert De Niro, built a name for himself on the stage as well as his appearance in a then-contemporary De Palma film, 1968’s GREETINGS.

The film’s style alternates back and forth, at times resembling the silliness of a 1920s Keystone Cops comedy while at other times something closer to cinéma vérité. The story follows three young men over the course of a weekend where one of them is supposed to get married, only to have second thoughts after spending a few days with his bride’s family.” (Wrong Reel)
