Description

When British playboy John brings his new wife Larita - a race car-driving feminist from Detroit - home to meet the family at their country estate, pretty much everyone's expectations are disappointed. His snooty mother is offended by Larita's carefree American ways, while Larita does everything she can to get her mother-in-law to loosen up, which only annoys her even more. John's sisters have diametrically opposed feelings about their new sister-in-law, but his father is intrigued to have finally found another who sees through the family's façade - and takes great perverse pleasure in watching his wife meet her match.

Es ist immer wieder angenehm ein Stück Zeitgeschichte vergangener Epochen in einem Film zu sehen. In dieser Produktion, lose basierend auf einem Roman von Noel Coward, wird der damals typisch britische Stil des Heuchelns durch eine forsche US-Amerikanerin durcheinandergewirbelt. Fazit: Kostüme, Darsteller, Musik, location und das Drehbuch sind wie aus einem Guss prima gelungen. Scharfzüngige Dialoge werden wie spitze Klingen geführt, so dass der dialogfreudige Cineast seine Freude hat (besonders im O-Ton). Ähnlichkeit mit "Eine Familie zum Abgewöhnen" und "Ein Sommer in Amalfi" hat die Geschichte schon. Nur finde ich sie in diesem Werk pointierter. Bravo !
