Bye

Posted on December 15, 2004August 21, 2018 by Village Vidiot

“Bye, Bye, Birdie,” December 15, 2004 (1995), video.  Whatever you do absolutely avoid this wretched remake of the charming 1960s (50s-style) romantic, neurotic comedy about the rock star, the mamma’s boy, and America. This turkey starring the very talented Jason Alexander (why is he stuck doing total trash since Seinfeld?), George Wendt, and a supporting cast of always-will-be-unknowns. In the Anne Margaret role, they actually put an anorexic young woman with a nice voice but she’s supposed to be ‘busting out all over’. Like June. It’s a total embarrassment and it goes on forever!. We should have watched “Princess Diaries II” which Bronwen 4 picked out and which was much better (albeit a little chick flick) than this. Whew!. I’m really glad I didn’t have any strong opinions about this movie!
