Siapa stay-up hari sabtu yang lepas? Malam itu cerita Father of the Bride (1991); sebuah cerita komedi, ada disiarkan di TV3. Walaupun ianya cerita lama, tapi saya masih belum pernah menontonnya, kerana waktu movie ini dikeluarkan, saya masih belum wujud. LOL.
Anyway, the story goes on like this. The protagonist, George Banks portrayed by Steve Martin (remember Inspector Clouseau from d Pink Panther?), is a proud-yet-dumbfound father and an athletic shoe company owner from an upper middle-class family, whose daughter-Annie- will be getting married to a man from upper-class family. Everything didn't quite normal though, since he can't imagine how's life going to be without her daughter and has gone a little 'cracked', especially when he knows that the wedding expenses shoots up over $100,000.
This film is somewhat intriguing, because it emphasizes on little details that somehow leads to a different perspective to me (!) for this movie. For an instance, when George is asked by Franck, his wedding planner for what's on the menu, whether it would be expensive-yet-exquisite seafood or going for the cheap chicken dinner, George opts for the chicken, but the cook won't cook chicken because of the non-glamorous status of the chicken; then George shouts on his face,
Still, the cook won't make the chicken. And thus drives George crazy. But when the wedding goes on, and everyone seems happy, it did relieves him a little. But it was a little funny that he was even not allowed to go to the backyard of his own house, and didn't even get a taste of a 500-bucks-per-head seafood dinner. He didn't even make it to see her daughter toss the bouquet. And all of sudden, his daughter is going to fly to Hawaii for their honeymoon. And all he get is the catastrophic after-wedding-scenario, almost getting summoned for not getting permit to park 200 cars in front of his house, and a call from her daughter from the airport, thanking him for everything. And that's more than enough to cover all these...gruesome he endures. He finally realizes that her once little Annie has grown up, and he feels proud of himself for the success of growing up a daughter and being a father for all her needs.
All for all? Remarkable.

If your going want to get a $1000 wedding cake, and $250-per-head dinner, and me on a new tux, then there will be no other then the chicken!
