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.”

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.
