The Anniversary Party is for quite a different generation

than the Big Chill
The Big Chill is sad because their mutual friend has died; the Anniversary party is sad because the characters are portrayed as shallow, insincere and insecure; of all the people that attend, the protagonists only seem to have one real friend that isn't there to simply be a hanger-on on or to advance their careers
A sly cinematic nod to Blake Edwards "The Party" with the Peter Sellers clone as guest, but this film doesn't have a fraction of a percent of the joy of the Sellers film, + maybe that's the point the director was making
Overall very solid acting by a great cast
The ever-divine Ms. Paltrow stole the limelight I thought
Wish more films were like this
