ROMY AND MICHELES HIGH SCHOOL REUNION- 1997 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Romy (Mira Sorvino) and Michele (Lisa Kudrow) are best friends who never fit in with "The A Group" in high school and were tormented by its leader, Christy Masters. After a chance encounter with old classmate Heather (Janeane Garofalo), they find out about their upcoming high school reunion back in Tucson.
They want to go back and show everyone how successful they are now. But after they realise they arent as succesful as they thought, they decide to lie and create fake accomplishments.
Like inventing post it notes.
Obsessed with this movie. Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino are both absolutely hilarious in it and work perfectly together. Romy and Michele are ditzy, but endearing ditzy not annoying ditzy. So many hilarious moments and lines.
One of the most underated soundtracks also. It introduced me to so many songs that became some of my favourites.
Dont get me wrong by The Pretenders.
Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper.
Just a Girl by No Doubt.
Blood & Roses by The Smithereens.
Cruel Summer by Bananarama.
And many more.
Romy and Micheles High School Reunion is a very unique comedy film. For example the extremely long dream sequence that happens when Michele dozes off on the way to the reunion. It goes on forever and gets very surreal.
The moment when Romy thinks Billy is going to dance with her but then disappears is legit one of the saddest things ive seen in a movie.
Time After Time plus Micheles "ill dance with you Romy" line always breaks me.
The movie made a very modest profit of around 10 million dollars at the box office. It has developed a cult following in the years since its release.
Directed by David Mirkin.
One of my favourite movies.
Also, Lisa Kudrow and Mira Sorvino recently reunited at an awards ceremony looking great and have said that a possible sequel is closer than ever. Would really love to see that.
