    How “SNL” comedian Paula Pell got her mojo back

    Actor and former “SNL” writer Paula Pell opens up about acting with her hall of fame-worthy, real-life besties, Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch and Maya Rudolph in Netflix’s "Wine Country.”




    The women escape to Napa for a milestone 50th birthday and Pell's character, Val, a wisecracking vintage shop owner, gets in touch with her vulnerable side when she strikes up a flirtation with a younger waitress. 




    "It's so nice in this movie, because so much of any writing with gay characters usually was — and sometimes is still is — 'Here's the gay character! Here's the other! We'll tell their story about  gay love or gay divorce!' No, it's a woman who was with the same person many years and is now looking to the future,” Pell said.
