My Best Friend's Wedding is a movie filled with beautiful, talented people, a charismatic cast to be sure. I just caught some of it again on cable, and tell you, I can't get enough of parts of it. For me, it was openly gay Rupert Everett who steals the movie, with just a limited amount of screen time. Of course, part of that time was spent singing a song by the immortal duo of Burt Bacharach and Hal David. I Say A Little Prayer, sung by a young Dione Warwick, was a delightful respite from a relatively tired and predictable script. And I have to admit, I've long had a crush on Rupert, from the first time I saw him in a lush film called Another Country.

You are so right, it is a fine movie and Rupes steals the whole thing. Its one of those lovely feel good movies, nice sound track, nice performers, nice story and just the right amount of campness.
