My First Wedding Page #2

Synopsis: In "My First Wedding" ("Mi primera boda"), Jewish-born Adrián and Catholic-born Leonora have finally reached their wedding day. Instead of gracefully embracing matrimony, Adrián spends the hours leading up to the ceremony trying to postpone it, not because he's got cold feet (or does he?), but because he's clumsily lost both his and his bride-to-be's sacred wedding rings. Disaster ensues in director Ariel Winograd's winning comedy about the politics of the proverbial "Big Day."

You know I have no sense

of direction. I will fall.

-Who says I can't see you?

-It's a tradition.

You can't see the bride before

saying yes to the Lord.

But I don't believe in the Lord.

We've already talked

about the Lord.

-Open your eyes.

-Thank you.

Hello.

-How are you?

-I'm fine.

Here you go.

These are lovely, Delia.

Thank you so much.

-Have you seen these... baby?

-Yes, I have.

They were made by a

Salzburg's jeweler...

for my grandmother

over 100 years ago.

She would always say that

the gold was melted...

from Philip, The Fair's jewels.

That's amazing.

And my mother had them blessed,

when she went to the Vatican...

by Pope John Paul I, one week

before his assassination.

I didn't know anything about that.

Is he alright?

-Stop it, Adrin Meier.

-That happened a long time ago.

He started to mess with

economic interests.

Thank you, auntie.

It is going to be an honor

for me to wear these rings.

-The honor is all mine.

-I love you.

Can you keep them?

Have you ever seen

a bride's dress with pockets?

And when the firstborn arrives,

I have a cross for him...

that was blessed by

Pope John Paul II...

before the first attack.

Let's get out.

The bride has to finish up

preparing for the ceremony.

Alright. I'll kiss the bride first,

if you allow me, Delia.

Yes... yes.

-You owe me one.

-They are free!

I'm sorry... Delia.

I don't know how to

thank you for this.

-This is unbelievable.

-I'm glad to hear that.

Let me introduce you

to my grandfather Lzaro.

Delia.

-Pleased to meet you.

-I'm divorced.

-Excuse me.

-Is that so?

There's so many divorced people.

Why would you want

to stay married?

-What are you doing, Potz?

-I don't know. It just got stuck.

Fede, you don't even know

how to flush.

It's not my fault.

-It started to overflow.

-Get out of the way.

-It's overflowing from below.

-That's OK.

I'm sorry. It wasn't my fault.

I've already fixed it.

It was very simple.

That's because

you are an engineer.

It has nothing to do with this.

It's just common sense.

That's something

you don't seem to have.

I'm sorry.

Have you talked to Leo?

-About what?

-About me.

Remember I told you

I was practicing?

Oh, yes. But that's way

too complicated, Fede.

She has already planned

everything.

Please. ask her.

Alright.

-Are you going to clean this?

-Alright.

Cousin...

You're getting married.

I'll miss you a lot.

I'm not going anywhere.

I'm staying here.

Don't I have

too much eye shadow?

To me, you're just fine.

But I could take a bit off.

You are beautiful.

Do you want to eat something?

-No, Ins, I'm on a diet.

-Yeah, me too.

-A bit more... please.

-Leonora.

Can I have Emanuel?

I need some final touches.

No, mom.

You've already stolen my dress

and you want my makeup artist?

I am the one who's

getting married.

Are you going to keep complaining

about the dress?

-Hello... gorgeous.

-Hello, Marta.

I don't know what the deal is

with the dress.

Get out. mom. Get out.

Your mother's dress is amazing.

She looks as if she were your sister.

I also loved it. We saw it at

a store and I told her I loved it.

I have to pee.

No... mom! What do you want?

-It's me again, baby.

-I'm in the bathroom.

I forgot to tell you something.

Come in. but don't look.

-Hello, lns.

-Hello. Adri. You look thinner.

Yes... Leonora bought me

a smaller suit.

She forced me to lose 10 pounds.

-But you look amazing.

-Oh, yes.

-Have you tipped the waiters?

-What for?

So they don't think

that we are stingy.

Excuse me,

are they working for free?

Don't be stingy, Adrin.

Tips are not included.

Then the stingy one is the owner

of the ranch, not me.

Let's not argue.

Give a tip to the waiters' boss.

I'll give you back the money.

-I have no cash.

-You never do.

-Oh, well.

-What did you want?

Did you know that Fede

is taking singing classes?

-He told me a thousand times.

-Yes, it's a bit weird.

The thing is that I thought

that maybe...

No.

No? You don't even know

what I was going to say.

Yes. I do. The answer is no.

It's enough with me taking care

of you not getting drunk...

and you want me to give

a mic to your cousin?

I'm sorry... but if I can't get drunk

at my own wedding...

Do it at one of your friends'.

-I'll see you at the altar.

-Zip it.

Yes. I do.

Yes. I do.

Yes... I do.

Yes. I do.

Yes. I do.

Yes. I do.

I do.

Yes...

I do.

Oh, no!

What are you doing?

Nothing.

-Are you looking for something?

-What do you think?

That you're looking for something.

Leonora's ring fell down.

It came down.

I think it fell around here.

She's going to kill you.

Shall I start to place

the guests?

We can begin as soon

as the priest and the rabbi arrive.

What are you going to do?

Do you know what he did?

Buy some time.

VILLA MARA RANCH

So? How's everything?

-Every-thing's perfect.

-No.

The altar is lovely.

The carpet, the flowers,

every-thing's like a dream.

-Almost every-one's here.

-Alright.

-Are the drinks cold?

-They are perfect.

-How's the catering?

-Delightful.

- Have they served the casseroles?

- Not yet.

Your mother told Mara there was

too much food around.

I saw Miguel ngel.

- Is he here?

- Yes.

And he came with

a very beautiful girl.

- Wasn't he on the guest list?

- Yes.

But I didn't think he would come.

He always hated weddings.

- Did he tell you anything?

- About what?

I don't know.

Does Adri know

about Miguel Angel?

Yes. of course.

Isn't he upset about him coming?

Yes. He hates him.

But he acts as if he didn't care.

I told him that if his coming here

would create a conflict...

we didn't have to invite him.

And he said that if Miguel ngel

could still cause a conflict...

in our relationship, there were

more reasons to invite him.

-I didn't understand a thing.

-Yes, it is a twisted idea.

I shouldn't have invited him.

Did he come with his

current girlfriend?

I don't know who she is.

But she's very beautiful.

I think I'm in love.

Marriage is like a besieged city.

The ones out want to get in.

And the ones in want to get out.

I should have known that before.

And what's your side,

Miguel ngel?

-I'm neutral.

-That's just too simple.

It's the only way

of having a fine wine...

with three beautiful women

and not suffering the consequences.

What can you tell me about

your new son-in-law... Marta?

That poor boy. He doesn't know

what he's getting himself into.

What are you doing, Potz?

You're going to ruin your pants.

I love being on the grass.

I love the ground,

the Pachamama.

-How are you, grandpa?

-Let me tell you one thing.

The best thing about marriage

is divorce.

I'll start doing things

I've have never done before.

I'll start smoking marijuana.

I'll make a threesome.

That's great, grandpa.

Birds are emigrating south, Fede.

What birds?

-Packages are delayed, Fede.

-Are you alright, cousin?

-How do I look, grandpa?

-I look amazing. I feel fresh.

Now I'll spend my days
