Review of Son of the Bride (2001) by Ray R — 07 Dec 2010

A serious start for a comedy, yet this movie quickly evolves to tragicomedy and builds to a crescendo of intermingled tears and laughter and culminated in teary-laughter (for me and mine). A bitter-sweet life lesson that combines good writing and directing with a major dose of great acting crowned by confident restraint.

Watch for the "extras" scene where Eduardo Blanco steals the show!

And my girl friend was very surprised when she realized I guessed Dick Watson's claim to fame correctly.

By the time of this writing it achieved an 86% rating on this site and I agree with that rating 100% ;).

I saw the original version with English sub-titles and I loved it.
