Movie Haiku:As "Donna," Jenny Slate is a cookbook version of a New-York-Jewish-Girl: by day she works in an Indie bookstore while at night she performs in a rundown comedy club. She may have lousy luck with men, but her indulgent friends think she is brilliant & her parents enable the illusion of independence so she will have time to sort her life out. Oy! NOT YET SEEN BY RICH.
