Discussion questions Muriel's wedding:
1. How would you describe Muriel as a person? Muriel's family? Rhonda?
2. What is Muriel's number one aim in life?
3. Why do you think Muriel wanted to be called Mariel instead?
4. Why do think Muriel so desperately wanted to get married?
5. What became a turning point for Muriel? When in the story did she "wake up" and what did she realise then?
6. Compare the Muriel we see in the beginning of the film with the one in the end of the film.
7. And do the same with the clique from Porpoise Spit (see question 6).
8. Bill Heslop´s slogan when he ran for state government was "You can't stop progress". Why is this slogan somewhat ironic?
