'From the salivating opening credits to the closing dedication, Waitress is steeped in the single-minded and gifted vision of its writer, director and co-star, Adrienne Shelly. A blooming talent, Shelly was tragically murdered while still working on the film, but in Waitress she has left a wonderful legacy.'
