The Weddg Vio: Directed by Clt Cowen, Norman Korpi. Wh Heather B., Ldsay Brien, Sean Duffy, Rachel Campos-Duffy. You're ved to the wackit weddg sce Robert Altman last threw the rice, where no one is pole and everyone "acts" real. What is tth, and what is fictn? How do one discern realy om pretense? The are ser qutns, but if you're lookg for answers à la Japane abstractn, German exprsnism or Swedish nihilism, keep lookg, bee The Weddg Vio has the answer, "REAL WORLD" style. In the first film to e out of the MTV phenomenon, Norman Korpi (the gay guy om "Real World-New York") and creative partner Clt Cowen have ma a licly wicked satire that skewers all the clichés and nventns of the realy show. Norm plays "Norm" who hir "Clt" to film his gay weddg. He v his bt iends - all popular "Real World" alums - and has Clt tape them as they arrive for the bachelor party and ceremony. The st members have great fun parodyg the on-air personas that MTV created for them through s edg: San Francis's Rachel is now the ultimate self-centered bch, London's Lars has his nose stuck up so high he might die om asphyxiatn, and New York's Heather B. be a walkg-talkg hip-hop vio. And the "te" manner of such shows, every backstab, every tfight, and every shockg revelatn is ught on viotape for our tawdry entertament. As the realy genre ph the envelope - and stras credibily - be ripe for parody; who better to do than the people who created the first place?" data-id="ma
