My 150 Favorite Movies - #73

Sideways (2004)

Another  delicious Alexander Payne comedy, this one a bromance between two delightfully flawed gentlemen on a wine-tasting tour before one of their number gets wed. A career resurgence for Wings' Thomas Haden Church, and a step up to stardom for unlikely leading man Paul Giamatti. Also starring Virginia Madsen and Sandra Oh, as two of the not so lucky ladies in their lives.
