I’m sure it comes as no surprise, that these three are the reason to see writer/director Justin Zackham (screen writer of The Bucket List) new movie The Big Wedding. Screen Picks: You seem to have a fascination with people who are experiencing a vital second or third act in life. What is it about this subject matter that attracts you?
