The Monday Night Film Series presents THE FABULOUS FOUR on Monday Jan. 6 at 7:30 p.m. in Tilley 102, UNB.

Thirty years ago, Jocelyn Moorhouse produced the crowd-pleasing Muriel’s Wedding. Now, she revisits shenanigans around matrimony, this time as a director, with this buddy comedy centered around a fractured 50-year friendship.

Four life-long friends—Lou (Susan Sarandon), Marilyn (Bette Midler), Alice (Megan Mullally), and Kitty (Sheryl Lee Ralph)—reunite in Key West, Florida, for Marilyn's surprise wedding. As they navigate wedding chaos, rekindle their sisterhood, and confront past grievances, their bonds are tested and strengthened through a series of outrageous escapades.

With a cast of talented women who bring authenticity and charm to their roles, "The Fabulous Four" promises a mix of humor, heartfelt moments, and stunning scenic backdrops that transport you to the sunny beaches of Key West. The film not only celebrates the joy and complexities of long-term friendships but also highlights the resilience and vibrancy of women over 60. It's a feel-good movie that will leave you laughing, crying, and calling up your own friends to plan your next adventure together.

“A comedy about BFFs, female needs, objectives, perspectives and aging. Directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse, it stars a quartet of iconic actresses -- Bette Midler. Susan Sarandon, Sheryl Lee Ralph and Megan Mullally -- and they are, indeed, fabulous”. Jennifer Merina AWFJ.org
