The Top 10 of Wedding Movies

Here is our list of our Top 10 Wedding Movies:

 

1.-Four Wedding and a Funeral

 

Romantic comedy about Charles, a noncommittal Englishman who meets Carrie–the American girl of his dreams–at a mutual friend’s wedding and proceeds to awkwardly woo her through one funeral and three more weddings–one of which happens to be her own. Finally Charles discovers himself standing at the altar on his own wedding day, betrothed to a woman he has no desire to spend the rest of his life with.

 

The story may seem simple, but the film is elevated by screenwriter Richard Curtis’ ear for witty dialogue and a colorful supporting cast. Director Mike Newell’s sympathetic attention to character keeps the proceedings believable, and prevents the film’s more serious moments from seeming mawkish. These elements, along with Grant’s star-making performance as Charles, helped the film achieve unexpected international success, including an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture.

 

2.-My Big Fat Greek Wedding

A perfect comedy of all the times. This is an independent film written by and starring Nia Vardalos and directed by Joel Zwick.
