As the title character in the film “Rachel Getting Married,” Rosemarie DeWitt played a bride who was constantly being upstaged by her emotionally damaged sister, a recovering addict. And on the Showtime series “United States of Tara,” Ms. DeWitt, again playing a sister, is even more marginalized by mental illness — by a factor of five, the number of attention-hogging alternate personalities of her younger sibling, Tara."
They are really not interested in talking about the play, are they? Whatever, Rosemarie DeWitt is a supremely interesting actress, for she can actually convey a meaningful sense of what it is to be wry. Midge, the beatnik mistress of Don Draper on Mad Men, the betrothed sister in Anne Hathaway's Oscar-baiting turn in Rachel Getting Married, and a main character on some show on Showtime I have never seen. (I think it's the one with Toni Colette?) I knew she was older than she looked but 38? Really?
