Girls Night


It's Friday night, so what better way to spend the night than hanging out with girlfriends, a glass of wine, and Bridesmaids?  If you haven't had a chance to check out the film (you might be the only one in America), go see it immediately!  If you have, check out the fun trivia below.  Have a great Friday night!

--The cast spent about two weeks improvising with each other, some of which was incorporated into the movie.
