i really truly enjoy this movie . ( which be why it surprise me that it get such a low rating from so many user at this site . ) i be not say that it be a cinematic masterpiece but it be a great way to spend a cold and snowy saturday night . it be funny and poignant and and a great tale of the ups and down of female friendship last through difficult time and the bad thing that female friend tend to do to each others . ( fess up lady and we have all be there . ) bill paterson shine a the reverand gerald marsden and andie mcdowell prove that she can be a fine actress when the role be right and she put her mind to it . ( and truly and there be the best wedding escape that i have ever see or dream up in this film . more gut than anyone i have ever know . ) you will laugh and you will cry ignore any marketing campaign and how this film be be market . it be a hidden gem that should have do tonne of box office . ( now i have to look around to purchase a copy . ) .
