Product Description

Carl Reiner made this enjoyable romantic farce about a divorced couple who commence an affair at their daughter's wedding. Reiner lets the idea bounce around the story's setting and characters so that the full comic effect of the illicit relationship can be felt more chaotically, building on its own irony. Bette Midler and Dennis Farina are quite believable and likable as the not-so-estranged-anymore couple, and Paula Marshall is very good as their exasperated daughter. Not a masterpiece, but one of Reiner's best films in years, with a distinctively European flavor to the comedy. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, production notes, cast and crew bios, theatrical trailer, Dolby sound, optional Spanish and French soundtracks, and optional Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh

Free spirit Molly De Mora (Paula Marshall) is about to settle down and marry the conservative Keith Marks (James Denton) son of Senator Marks.
There is just one caveat or maybe two. Molly wants to elope and warns Keith that the last thing he wants to do is to invite her feuding parents who have been divorced for 14 years.
Warning not headed both father (Dennis Farina) and mother (Bette Midler) are forced to gather and nature takes it course. After an explosive confrontation we find where Molly gets her free spirit.
This is where the fun begins as all the characters meet and mix to confront the situation

I think I've seen this movie a bizillion times and like one reviewer said, I never am bored with it. It's just that kind of movie that you can sit back, relax and have a good laugh. The two main couples the movie focuses on are wonderful together; but truthfully the whole cast played their parts very well. I just can't say it enough though...I loooove Danny Nucci. He's so cute! That raven black hair, those dark brooding eyes, that New York accent...

Laugh and be happy.
I have watched this movie over and over -- every time I find something new and chanting. The two wedding scenes are hilarious, the opening scene is one of the best. Enjoy.

The missing feeling
Carl Reiner normally makes a much better showing than this. He had all the elements, with Midler, Farina, and the gorgeous Paula Marshall, but the writing let him down big time. Read more

Great soundtrack
I thought the movie was good. But the real thing that I really loved was the soundtrack compilation. I what you mmight call a sentimental fool for great love songs.
