The House Bunny – I didn’t pay any attention to this movie when it first arrived in the theatres. I just assumed it was going to be a gross-out comedy that wasn’t even trying to be clever in its offensiveness. But subsequently, I began to hear some positive things about it, mostly surrounding the performance of Anna Farris. So we added it to our queue to balance out some of the more dour selections. And it was quite enjoyable. Farris is great. Her comedic timing is spot-on and she holds this comedy comfortably on her shoulders. And while the screenplay certainly wasn’t a feminist ideal, there were a few quirks here and there to keep it from being entirely predictable and chauvinistic.
