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

A Favorite of Mine !.......2007-05-07

This movie will never get old. It is SO funny!!!!
A must see I watch it every 2-3 months

A Great Comedy.......2007-02-12

I like Bette Midler more as a comedian than a singer, so it's no surprise that she shines in this comedy about the estranged parents of a bride-to-be who rediscover their passion for each other. I've watched it several times and enjoy it each time.

That old feeling dvd - wrong region.......2007-02-04

Great dvd - only problem is it is the wrong region for watching in nz. we have been able to get another one from somewhere else that works. Maybe putting this info on the dvd when looking to purchase it would help with this.
thanks

"I need dogs".......2007-01-15

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.

Wo can resist a movie with Bette?.......2006-12-07

I love this movie. It is such great escapism!
They all play good roles and although not the most refined screenplay ever written, it has all the stuff that a feel good movie needs. I especially love when Bette sings that beautiful song in the restaurant; 'Somewhere Along the Way'. I adore her voice and what a great all-rounder she is. There are very few true divas that can act, sing, dance and be comedic as well.
This is one of my all time favorites for a good laugh and I have to admit that most of my favorites were never box office hits.
