Review of Melvin Goes to Dinner (2003) by Jeff B — 01 Jun 2007
I saw Melvin Goes to Dinner at the 2003 Waterfront Film Festival in Saugatuck, Michigan. Directed by Bob Odenkirk, it was a brilliantly written movie about a group of people who have a conversation in a restaurant, sharing their life stories. Each character has a secret they're hiding, and you connect with each character.
Though it sounds like a drama, it contains some hilarious parts throughout the movie, including hilarious cameos from David Cross and Jack Black.
I was lucky enough to talk with the writer, editor, and star, Michael Blieden. He was a very interesting person with a lot of great stories to tell about making the movie. Though he did a great job acting and directing, I must comment on his editing. The editing was fantastic, so much is happening throughout the movie in so many different areas.
I loved this movie, it was extremely entertaining with some great twists. Be sure to watch it more than once, you'll catch so much more.
