Rachel Dratch In Spring Breakdown

Rachel Dratch in Spring Breakdown stars as one of three women who are friends and pushing 40 who need a break! Along with Amy Poehler and Parker Posey, she shines in this touching and funny movie about making the most of just being you. Although the movie was actually filmed in 2006, it was not released right away due to studio troubles. It was not released by Warner Bros. Studios to theaters at all, and instead was released on Blu-ray and DVD on June 2, 2009.

In light of the woes of the current economy, the home studio that originally had the movie had been shut down, so for two years it sat untouched until it was eventually picked up and released. Warner Bros. film studio had cut production and had streamlined all operations, and it did this by eliminating some of their units like Warner Independent. The company also absorbed some new studios like New Line Cinema during the time that the United States economy continued to fall into a recession. Fans are glad to see that Spring Breakdown finally made it onto store shelves, however.

Rachel Dratch and the two other women in Spring Breakdown star as three women who are nearing the age of 40. They pretty much have been nerds for their whole lives and after some hard times, the women decide that they need a vacation from their lives for a while. One of the girls finds that her fiance is gay, the second one somehow manages to repulse a man who is blind, and the third woman has a cat that she loves dearly that dies. It is at this point that they decide they need to get away. Becky, one of the women, has a boss with a daughter who is going to South Padre Island for her college spring break, and Becky has been recruited to chaperone her. She takes the other two women along, and parties, boose, and much younger guys transform the nerdy women into party animals.

Rachel Dratch in Spring Breakdown wrote the movie along with director Ryan Shiraki. The two had the goal to make it a broad goofy comedy that stars women and they were successful. The movie cost between $10 million and $12 million to produce, and Rachel Dratch claims that it appeals to women and also to those who are gay.

This movie first debuted at the Sundance Film Festival, when many of the other films that had been presented were much more dramatic and dreary. Spring Breakdown was much more different than those other films, and it seemed to bring a much needed boost of comic relief to the festival. You can catch Amy Poehler along with Rachel Dratch in Spring Breakdown on DVD and Blu ray.
