Weddings
With wedding season upon us, take a walk down the aisle of some of cinema’s most unforgettable nuptials. Focusing on the lead-up to and spectacle of the big day itself, these films dramatize the often-conflicting dreams, desires, and fears that bring two people together before the altar, with directors like Sofia Coppola ( Marie Antoinette ), Jonathan Demme ( Rachel Getting Married ), and Lars von Trier ( Melancholia ) examining the emotional ambivalence and intersecting familial expectations surrounding the main event. Replete with will-they-won’t-they romantic tension, simmering family drama, and extravagant mise-en-scène, these films look past the pageantry to reveal the fractures that underpin the promise of “happily ever after.”
