"Post Grad" a Delightful Movie for a Rainy Weekend!


If you are looking for a charming, realistic, slightly humorous movie than "Post Grad" is what you want to see. Staring Alexis Bledel, Zach Gilford, Michael Keaton, Carol Burnett, Rodrigo Santoro, and directed by Vicky Jenson. Alexis Bledel who you may recognize from the hit series Glimore Girls, is the main character (Ryan Malby). A 22 year old post graduate searching for the career of her dreams, and discovering her inner self during the process. Persons in their 20's finishing college would be able to relate to the movie. It is delightful. The family is middle class, and the witty grandmother is played by Carol Burnett . Unlike other films where you may notice women in their early 50's, with bad Botox playing grandmothers who should be in their 70's; Carol Burnett is actually 76 years old, which gave her role a sense of authenticity. The movie trailer depicts the films budget to appear extensive, however it looked more like an independent film. Post Grad is a cute movie for family or friends, and if with friends going out for a couple of drinks will be a great after movie affair.
