My First Wedding Page #3

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."

smoking joints.

The ceremony is going

to start right now.

Yes. I understand.

Let's go.

He's an old unkind bastard.

Just think that you're now going

to play Burako all you want.

That's true.

Your mother-in-law

didn't say hello to me.

Your mother-in-law

didn't say hello to me.

-And have you?

-No, I won't be begging.

And I don't want to think

about family reunions.

-Mom, please, don't start.

-What?

Is everything alright?

-Are you ready?

-Yes... I'm ready.

Yes... me too. I've been waiting.

-Can we begin?

-As soon as the music starts,

you walk down the aisle.

I'll let you know.

Once you're out, you stop

at the beginning of the aisle,

take a deep breath

and start walking to the altar.

Don't rush.

Enjoy the moment.

I'm so nervous!

We have a big problem.

The rabbi and the priest..

when are they coming?

-Aren't they here yet?

-No.

I only hope that our superiors

don't find out about this.

A mixed wedding.

This is unbelievable!

It's a good deed.

A good deed, yeah.

But I won't say anything about it.

Me neither.

How am I going to tell?

A good deed.

A good silence deed.

How's the new Pope?

-Fine.

-Is that so?

No, I mean, he's fine.

He's a very good Pope. He's fine.

Are you planning to abolish

celibacy of the priests?

Those things take a long time.

I don't think I'll be around for that.

And don't you ever protest?

If we protested,

we would be protestants.

-That was a joke.

-Yes, I realize that.

I'm married.

I have four children.

That's nice.

Sometimes, I would love to be

married and have children.

Sometimes,

I would love to be single.

It's getting late.

Are we far away?

The sign said 600 yards...

and we've done over 6 miles.

-Was the band too expensive?

-Excessively.

I would have done it for free

and a lot better.

I know that.

But we all know how Leo is.

Yes, she's beautiful

and she's going to be my wife.

Fede, I need you to be

with me on this one.

Alright.

-Hello.

-Hello, this is the chauffeur.

Hi, how are you?

I'm going in circles

through this area...

and I can't find the ranch.

You didn't tell me the road

was in bad condition.

I hate getting my ride

dirty like this.

I understand. Where are you?

On my right I have a plantation,

some big trees.

On my left I have a street

that goes both ways...

and a bridge ahead.

Oh, yes, I know where you are.

Follow the bridge, and turn left.

It's impossible to miss it.

Perfect. I'll see you soon.

Bye.

What the hell am I doing?

There's no coming back from this.

These guys are good.

-What are you talking about?

-The band.

Leonora wants to speak with you.

-Hello... baby.

-Adrin.

The rabbi and the priest

haven't arrived yet.

I called the chauffeur service,

they told me they left quite early.

Do you know anything?

Do you have their numbers?

No. Over.

What's with the "over"?

I'm not playing.

-Did they have any problem?

-I don't know, my dear.

You've paid them, right?

Yes. of course. 50% in advance...

and 50% on completion of the job,

like you told me.

-And how long are we supposed to wait?

-I don't know.

Could you stop saying

"I don't know"?

I really don't know what to say... baby.

People are waiting.

Honey, in a case like this,

I need to use my experience.

I would recommend leaving

the ceremony for the end.

We need to begin right away

with the waltz.

If not, the meat will get overcooked.

It's not a bad idea.

Who asked for your opinion,

you little piece of sh*t?

I take it back.

Things need to be done

as we planned them.

I've been planning this

for over a year.

I don't agree on changing

anything over. Over.

Alright... baby.

Think about it.

Here she comes. I'm going to tell

the DJ to put the music on.

Alright.

Wow.

You are beautiful.

I've been locked up for two hours,

hiding from everyone...

and completely tense.

And for what?

Now I have to go in there

as if this were my sweet sixteen.

You shouldn't look at things

that way, baby.

This is the most important day

of our lives...

and we love each other.

-Don't get sentimental.

-But that's the truth.

I want to kiss you.

No, you are going

to ruin my makeup.

Alright. Are you ready?

Every-body's waiting, baby.

Come on.

Shall we go in?

Let's go.

How are you?

Hello, how are you?

Kiss, kiss!

Pretend that you are enjoying this.

I'm enjoying this.

The other way.

-Follow the beat, Adrin.

-I'm doing that.

-No, you are not.

-I'm doing my best.

I knew this would happen.

You should have taken lessons.

-They were expensive.

-No, they weren't.

They were, and the instructor

had bad breath and a terrible smell.

It was impossible to concentrate.

-Stop it, Adrin.

-You stop it. You started this.

-Alright, but you stop it.

-I'll stop it.

They were expensive.

I love you.

Take it easy, Adrin.

Lzaro.

Congratulations, my dear.

You look wonderful.

Thank you very much.

You don't look bad yourself.

Thank you.

Is your friend Ins single?

Yes. she is.

And do you know

if she's into old men?

Maybe.

What happened?

You got into a fight.

No... nothing happened, mom.

You're lying.

There was no ceremony.

Something must have happened.

Tell your mother.

There's nothing to tell, mom.

Has anyone told you

I'm taking singing lessons?

No. I've already talked

to Adrin.

It's just a song. It would be

my wedding present.

This is my wedding,

and this is my waltz.

Please shut up and smile

for the picture.

Alright.

Is there something wrong?

-Hello.

-Hello.

-You look beautiful.

-Thank you.

-That suit looks amazing on you.

-Really?

Thank you.

-I wasn't sure this was a good idea.

-Why?

I don't know,

because of your girlfriend.

Do you say it because

of what happened between us?

That happened over

It's an old story.

And you are part of the family.

You spend more time

with my mother than me.

The rabbi and the priest

got lost.

Oh, no. But that's quite common

with the western religions.

I didn't think you would come.

I didn't think you would get married.

-I'm not married yet.

-That's good.

That gives you a unique opportunity.

You have the whole party

to change your mind...

to really change it.

I give them my car,

add 10.000 pesos...

and they give me the convertible.

It only takes a week.

It's amazing.

That's really good.

And what do you do for a living?

I study film.

That's nice.

Do people study film?

Yes... people study film.

They do.

And is the money good?

I don't do it for the money, so...

And why do you do it?

There are other things in life.

I have an idea for a movie.

You might find it useful.

It's about a group of friends in a

Jewish country club, in the 90's...

they have a really bad time.

-So?

-That's basically it.

Alright... I'll think about it.

Maybe we could write it together,

if you are interested.

And what do you do for a living?

I do imports and exports.

He is a textile wholesaler

in the clothes district.

Hello, guys. Does anyone have

a little joint to give me?
