    One of the most undervalued black comedy masterpieces, starring movie-goddess Brittany Murphy as Reba, the loopy but loveable bride to be whose fiancé shoots himself when she calls off the wedding a week in advance. S P Flanery portrays Zack who, in pain of her passing, goes nowh...( read more)ere without the skeleton of his dead wife, and is therefore far from over it. The two meet and endure the resistance of Reba's mother and the pressure of Zack's grandmother both of which put a strain on the development of their relationship. Dark, subtly twisted, cleverly scripted with a crazy soundtrack, I really could not recommend it more...
