While promoting this film, Winona Ryder claimed that her and Keanu Reeves might actually have been married to each other in real life when they filmed the marriage scene in Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), because a real Romanian Orthodox priest was used. Francis Ford Coppola, who directed that film, agreed that this could be true. See more »

You often wonder what would happen if you met a person with an attitude and uncompromising view of life and it's up's and downs, but imagine what would happen if 2 of this kind of person met each other...
An hilarious romp of saying's, beliefs and attitudes that concoct and collide and make this into a superbly watchable film.
How some people can project their feelings and beliefs into a verbal projection to another person is easy to believe .. but when it is directed at another with equal talents can only lead to fun!
Two superb performances, a laugh a minute.. keep this film, you will want to watch it multiple times..
