Cake is a 2005 romantic comedy film directed by Nisha Ganatra.
[edit] Plot
The picture follows the life of Pippa McGee (Graham) as she takes that giant step between 29 and 30 that involves growing up, becoming responsible and discovering true love.
When freelance travel writer Pippa comes home for a friend's wedding, she finds herself running her father's wedding magazine while he recovers from a heart attack. Not only does Pippa have to run Wedding Bells, she also has to save it from the chopping block as hungry vultures wait to take over her father's media conglomerate.
Pippa and her strait-laced father have never truly gotten along since her mother died years ago. To complicate things, Pippa becomes involved in a love triangle between herself, her father's right-hand man Ian (Sutcliffe) and the free-spirited photographer Hemingway Jones (Diggs).
Everything is completed by the cast of token friends, Lulu (Oh), Jane (Chalke) and Rachel (Grdevich), who provide Pippa with the moral support she needs to get the job done, both in her love life and in her job as editor.
