Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for anyone who's survived a family wedding and people who need a good giggle. Relationships are put under a microscope, for better or worse.
The mood
Light and funny.
The pace
Quick and easy-going, at 1 hr 16 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • Made in 1929: an older pace and style.
  • Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.

An unimpressive but well-intentioned man is given the chance to marry a popular actress, of whom he has been a hopeless fan. But what he doesn't realize is that he is being used to make the actress' old flame jealous.
