Kitchen Confidential
“There is no question that Oliver Parker has become a ladies man…
Parker has another female-friendly project on the festival circuit. I Really Hate My Job is a comedy about a night in the lives of five feisty waitresses in a London restaurant as they squabble over life, love and the right to serve a famous Hollywood movie star.”

PROSKAR for SHIRLEY Best Actress
Fresh in from Steve Clare the Glaswegian editor of PROST AMERIKA! - the German Language Arts and Culture Guide to events in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest.
Our coverage of the recent Seattle International Film Festival was both extensive and widely praised.
The PROSKARS are PROST AMERIKA!’s recognition of excellence at SIFF and are based on reviews of over 55 films.
I am therefore very happy to inform you that Shirley Henderson has been nominated for a PROSKAR in the Category of Best Actress at the Seattle International Film Festival.

SIFF - Ohmygosh! A feature starring all women!
I Really Hate My Job (6/8), a breezy little comedy that takes place in one evening within the confines of one restaurant. It is ensemble comedy with great performances all around by Shirley Henderson, Alexandra Maria Lara, Neve Campbell, Anna Maxwell Martin, and Oana Pellea. There is chaos in the kitchen as Alice (Henderson) has to fill in for the chef, and there is chaos out on the floor as Abi (Campbell) is having a 30th birthday meltdown. In the meantime, there is a dinner reservation for a movie star, and the anticipation of this brush-with-greatness is putting them all on edge. The writing is sharp, fast, and funny, and Henderson and Oana Pellea (as the dish washer) are particularly hilarious in their claustrophobic kitchen interplay.

An excellent theatrical movie about 5 girls working in a restaurant but in fact looking for the meaning of their lives. Great acting on all 5 actresses, 2 of them being Romanian. Composition roles that request creativity and power: Shirley Henderson is a terrific almost hysterical woman and I would give her the Oscar for her performance. Oana Pellea is a delusional older woman, speaking just in philosophical words and behaving like nothing around her is happening; until frustration gets her too! I would like to see this script on stage eventually, and with same casting would be a stunning show. I saw the movie (an absolute world premiere) at TIFF (Transilvania International Film Festival) in Cluj, Romania, and I enjoyed every second of it.
