Description
The Wedding Date (Dir. Clare Kilner, 2005): In this sparkling romantic
comedy, Debra Messing plays Kat, a never-married New Yorker, who is invited to
her parents' London home for her younger sister's wedding. What should be a
joyous occasion bodes disaster for Kat, however, when she discovers that the
best man will be none other than her ex-fiancé who, two years before,
inexplicably dumped her. In a desperate attempt to face the ordeal with dignity,
Kat hires Nick (Dermot Mulroney), a charming and handsome professional male
escort, to pose as her new boyfriend and escort her to the wedding.
Even more valuable to Kat than Nick's good looks and charisma is his keen
insight into human behavior--a well-learned trick of his trade. Over the course
of the weekend, Nick takes on the role of the bride's therapist, the father's
ideal son-in-law, the groom's new best friend and the object of every woman's
affection. For Kat, what starts out as a pretend relationship with Nick begins
to turn into something entirely unexpected: a second chance at love.
My Big Fat Greek Wedding (Dir. Joel Zwick, 2002): In this hit ethnic comedy,
Toula (Nia Vardalos) is a thirty-year-old ugly duckling whose life is going
nowhere while she works long hours in her family's Greek diner (called Dancing
Zorba's). She then decides to give herself a radical makeover, lands a new job
in her aunt's travel agency and falls for a hunky, sensitive, vegetarian teacher
(John Corbett). They soon decide to get married, but her family have a history
of getting hitched exclusively to other Greeks. My Big Fat Greek Wedding is a
warm, funny comedy adapted by writer/star Vardalos from her own one-woman show.
The Wedding Singer (Dir. Frank Coraci, 1998): It's 1985 and Robbie Hart
(Adam Sandler) is the ultimate master of ceremonies until he is left at the
altar at his own wedding. Devastated, he becomes a newlywed's worst nightmare -
an entertainer who can do nothing but destroy other people's weddings. It's not
until he meets a warm-hearted waitress named Julia (Drew Barrymore) that he
starts to pick up the pieces of his heart. The only problem is, Julia's about to
have a wedding of her own and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of a
lifetime, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever...
