Girl Most Likely

A failed playwright (Kristen Wiig) with early potential falls on hard times and finds herself back at home with her quirky dysfunctional family. Wiig is perfect for the part as the lovable loser struggling to find her piece of happiness. Annette Benning is terrific as the eccentric mother. Matt Dillon plays the mom's odd & mysterious younger lover. If your sense of humor favors offbeat comedy, you might enjoy this funny film. It's not hilarious, but it has its moments. The grass is always greener on the other side when a girl with Jersey roots & New York ambitions learns life's lessons about friends and family. Look for a couple of surprise cameos.
