About the Movie:
Hailed as “pure comedy gold” (Andrew Freund, Dish Nation-FOX TV) and “fifty shades of great” (Pete Hammond, Deadline), the delightfully entertaining BOOK CLUB debuts on Digital August 14, 2018 and on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD August 28 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. Starring legendary actresses Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen and Mary Steenburgen, BOOK CLUB follows four lifelong friends whose lives are turned upside down to hilarious ends when their book club attempts to shake things up by tackling the infamous "Fifty Shades of Grey." From discovering new romance to rekindling old flames, they inspire each other to make their next chapter the best chapter. The film also stars Andy Garcia, Don Johnson, Craig T. Nelson, Richard Dreyfuss and Ed Begley Jr.
My Thoughts:
I absolutely loved Book Club! All four of the main female characters were so interesting and faced realistic obstacles that often come with being a "certain age." Diane's (Diane Keaton) grown kids were babying her and trying to control her life. Vivian (Jane Fonda), who never settled down, was starting to realize that she might have missed out due to her fear of commitment. Sharon (Candice Bergen) is having trouble moving on after a divorce, especially when her ex gets engaged to a much younger woman. And Carol (Mary Steenburgen) is trying to find common ground with her husband now that the kids have grown-up and left the nest. Most of all, this movie was funny! The dialog was witty, and these four ladies had great chemistry together. I highly recommend this film!
The Blu-ray Combo Pack is loaded with uproarious bonus content including deleted and extended scenes, interviews with filmmakers and the iconic cast, explorations of the writing and casting process and behind-the-scenes footage from the set.
