"I would like to say a few words about weddings," a weary man says from the middle of a muffle of rice and scattered bottles. What follows is a warm, witty look at what it meas to be Father of the Bride. Spencer Tracy is the father of Elizabeth Taylor the bride in this lively Vincente Minnelli-directed classic. Taylor is glowingly showcased - and reflected in three mirrors when first seen in a wedding down. Tracy's performance captures every loving father's exasperations and joys as the day approaches. It also captured the fourth of his nine* Best Actor Academy Award® nominations. The film also earned nominations** for Best Picture and Screenplay. Here comes the bride, there goes dad's wallet... and everyone's heart. What sparkling fun!
