Ana Ayora, Patricia Rae and Robin Williams The Big Wedding
This Friday, April 26, The Big Wedding appears in movie theaters across the country We talked about it a couple of weeks ago, but it bears repeating: this light rom-com stars some of the biggest names working in Hollywood today, including Robert De Niro, Susan Sarandon, Diane Keaton…and Patricia Rae, as the severe mother of the bride who doesn’t speak a word of English.
Patricia, of course, doesn’t have a problem with English. She was born in Manhattan and raised in Queens, and she’s been a bright light in Latino Hollywood for more than a decade, with appearances in movies like Maria Full of Grace and Swimfan, as well as high-end TV series from The Closer and Chuck to–most recently–Blue Bloods and Touch. So Wedding is a big deal for all concerned…and even better, it was–in her own words “a dream job.”
We had a chance to sit down and talk with Patricia about the role and her work in general (and this is just the first part of a longer conversation we’ll share soon). Check it out below…
