It's Not the Bride But the Father of the Bride You Have To Worry ABout!
29 April 2019
The cast is first rate with Tom Smothers as the troubled father of the bride on his daughter's wedding day. He becomes fixated on a cardboard cut out of a flapper played by Dame Twiggy. British Sylvia Syms OBE played his long-suffering wife. The late great Hermione Baddeley is worth watching just to see her act as the mother-in-law. It is supposedly based on the British comedy by Ray Cooney. While the cast is first rate, the film lacks believability in the father's belief that he is talking to Polly Perkins, a 1920s flapper in costume. It's silly comedy fair.
