Wine Country (2019)

Six women who've been friends for decades get together for a trip to wine country to celebrate a birthday. The AirBnB comes with a wacky chauffer/chef and the owner stops by to supply some more forced wackiness... and this would've been an annoying chore if that's all this was. Luckily, it's more than that.

The camaraderie of this group of women just jumps off the screen. It has nothing to do with the story or even their characters as written but everything to do with these actresses. More than a few times, I got the feeling they were honestly cracking each other up so that I wondered just how much of the movie was improvised. In short: I enjoyed hanging out with them & the "story" was just an unnecessary layer.
