Prete-Moi Ta Main

November 13.

Well it happened. I finally found a French, romantic comedy I do not like. "Prete-Moi Ta Main" wasn't as bad as so many Hollywood rom-coms, but it wasn't the cute Frenchie-type that I love.

The English title, "I Do: How to Get Married and Stay Single," is a mouthful! But the story is, well almost, simple. The main guy has a gaggle of overbearing sisters and an even overbearing mother who just want him to get married. So he comes up with the worst plan ever - hire a woman to pretend to be your finance, she stands him up at the altar, he is heartbroken, no one bothers him about marriage again.

Of course the plan goes wrong and he falls in love with the woman who's pretending to be his future wife. So the eternal bachelor has met his match, and so and and so on.
