Über diesen Film

The Waitress is a sweet and sassy tale about a small town waitress who transforms her hopeless life into a hilarious and unexpected love story. As a favorite waitress at Joe's Diner, Jenna (Keri Russell) is also a "pie genius," naming her tantalizing confections after the tumultuous events and emotions of her daily life. She's hoping that one of her pastries, like her "Kick In The Pants" Pie, might even change her life -- if she can just win that $25,000 pie contest. But when Jenna discovers that she's pregnant, she immediately bakes an "I Don't Want Earl's Baby" Pie -- a quiche of egg and cheese with a smoked ham center. After all, her husband Earl (Jeremy Sisto) is a jealous jerk who is essentially a child himself and the last thing they need to do is start a family together. But the pregnancy eventually changes the course of events in her life, giving her an unexpected and newfound confidence.

Jenna is walking to Joe's Pie Dinner. Waitressing for her couldn't be finer. Jenna is pregnant with a baby. And I Deka-nitely don't mean maybe. I Deka-nitely love this girl. Baby's lie, she enters the world. I hope pie don't make me a stranger. So until next time...Aura Changer!!

This is such a great film, I felt like I was watching excerpts from person's life. The roller coaster events had me hooked in the first 10 minutes. Adrienne Shelly did a great job directing, unfortunately this is her last film. One can only imagine what she would have created if she was still with us. Definitely worth it!

So good! Unique, funny, surprising, bittersweet love story about starting fresh. So tragic that Adrienne Shelly's life was ended so early. I would have loved to watch her career unfold after this film.
