I know some people were offended by Maggie Gyllenhaal’s character in the movie Away We Go, but I thought it was really funny.
For those of you who haven’t seen it:
Maggie’s character in the movie is a caricature of a rich “AP” hippie parent, who has such strong opinions about her own parenting she attempts to give unsolicited advice to every parent (or parent-to-be) around her, and it doesn’t seem to be well-received by anyone. The guy who plays her AP husband in this movie is equally as funny, although he has a much smaller role.
Brian and I were crying we were laughing so hard. (Probably because we relate to them more than we would like to admit.)
Here are some scenes from the movie:
