If you’re a fan of Amy Poehler and her crew of comedic legends, you won’t want to miss their upcoming Netflix release, Wine Country. Set to premiere on May 10th, this film promises a delightful mix of laughter, friendship, and of course, plenty of wine.
The movie, which feels like a blend of Bridesmaids and Sideways, is set to keep you entertained as you kick back with your best girlfriends. Starring a fantastic lineup including Maya Rudolph, Jen Baxter, Rachel Dratch, Emily Spivey, Paula Pell, and Tina Fey, it’s hard to imagine this film being anything short of hilarious. Just take a look at the trailer, and you’ll find yourself laughing out loud.
Wine Country revolves around the character of Rebecca (played by Dratch), who is celebrating her 50th birthday with a weekend getaway to Napa. Rudolph plays Naomi, a “weary mom” who is relatable in the most amusing ways. The trailer opens with a side-splitting karaoke moment featuring a very tipsy Naomi that many of us can relate to after a glass (or six) of wine.
As the story unfolds, we meet Poehler’s character Abby, who is the organized planner of the trip, insisting on sticking to the itinerary. But as the wine flows, her plans get tossed aside, allowing the group to address their long-standing friendships and personal issues. Fey’s character offers a wise reminder: “Whatever gets said, it’s probably what the person has always felt, and the alcohol just let it out.”
If you’ve spent time with close friends over drinks, you know exactly how those moments can go. Abby perfectly sums up the dynamic: “These women I’ve known for 20 plus years and yeah sometimes I wanna tell this one to fuck off. That’s what intimacy looks like.”
May 10th is the date to mark on your calendar, because this film is sure to be a must-watch. So, grab your wine glasses and get ready for a hilarious ride!
