My First Wedding Page #8

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."

Please... Leo... forgive me.

We can still do it.

Do you want to marry me?

Tell me. We can do it.

-Do you want to marry me?

-Leave me alone.

-Do you want to marry me?

-Leave me alone.

Leave me alone.

-Leave me alone.

-I'll be waiting at the altar.

I'll be there. I'll be waiting.

I'll be there, Leo.

One last thing.

Where was the ring?

Miguel ngel gave it to me.

Have you lost your armor

or have you found a horse?

Stop it.

-You don't mess with my cousin.

-Stop it.

Let's get ready for the ceremony.

Where's the bride?

If she doesn't show up

in 20 minutes...

you could start giving

the souvenirs away.

Leonora, get back.

Leonora! Get back!

You wanted all this.

You wanted the party.

You wanted all this sh*t.

There you have it.

You say you don't know

your boyfriend...

when you've been dating

a dumb your whole life!

We could assume

that you have your own issues.

Leonora!

Son of a b*tch!

You ripped my dress!

I'm sorry!

No! I'm sorry!

I'm sorry.

-No, I'm sorry.

-I love you.

I love you too.

Have you got married already?

No.

Then all my efforts have paid off.

Are you happy this way?

How?

Believing that you are better

than the rest...

putting everybody to the test.

Don't underestimate the things

I could do...

to see you happy.

I thought you were so smart.

I am very smart. Very.

You are pathetic.

And you're lousy in bed.

How are you?

I'm fine.

He was unbearable.

-Excellent!

-You think?

I'm getting married.

What can I do?

Do you want me to go

downstairs and say something?

Don't worry.

I'll go downstairs myself.

Alright.

Can someone please tell me

what's going...?

What are you?

A truck driver?

That's awful.

It's not your problem, mother.

It is my problem.

I'm the bride's mother.

Every-one's asking for you.

And I don't know where you are.

That's so you.

This is the worst day of my life,

and you only care about yourself.

I'll go downstairs.

Go ahead... darling.

Go ahead.

You can't blame me for all this.

Please... may the rabbi and the priest

come over here.

Everyone, take your position.

Leave the first two rows

for the family.

What do you think?

Will she come?

I don't know.

All set. Here you go.

Thank you, Mica,

but I won't need it.

Grandpa keeps asking for a joint.

Thanks. Sorry, Mica.

Do you have a cigarette?

-Yes, but a regular one.

-Yes, that's fine.

Have you started to smoke?

Tell him this is something special.

-Cousin.

-What?

I'm also going to miss you.

Really?

No, it's a lie.

You are happy, right?

Happy about what?

Come on, mother.

You never liked Adrin.

You hate his family,

you hate he's Jewish...

you hate the way he swallows

without chewing...

you hate everything about him.

That's a complete insult.

I never said anything like that.

-Never.

-I know you, mother.

You never liked my boyfriends.

You truly believe I'm a monster.

I guess I am.

Look at you.

This is who I raised.

I must be a monster.

I'm a horrible person.

I've failed at everything.

At everything!

This is too painful.

I can't breathe.

I'm sorry.

What you said is not true.

Marito was lovely.

Lovely.

Marito is gay.

But he was lovely.

My God.

You're terrible.

Let me see.

This is clearly not the image

I had in my mind...

when I organized my wedding.

Leonora!

If you don't come... I'll get married!

If the Romans were right and

this reflects my future...

I prefer to stay single.

Tiang Bei congratulates

you for your wedding.

He wishes you

happiness and fortune.

-Thank you.

-Adrin, a great man.

Valuable man.

That's because

you have just met him.

But you will change your mind.

A man that goes underground,

climbs walls...

rides horses,

fights with his fists...

destroys dragons...

is a great man.

Elena, I have this...

-No, no.

-It's the last version I've found.

Do whatever you want.

I don't care.

Alright. That's nice.

Tiang Bei wishes you prosperity.

Have you been busy lately?

-Do you play at a lot of parties?

-Yes, we do.

If you need a singer,

you can count on me.

That's nice. Thank you.

I'm studying to perform

in musicals.

I have a copy of my rsum.

I could give it to you.

OK.

What a great piano.

Not now, mom.

And your mother?

Mom took three Valiums

and stayed at home sleeping.

That many?

Three Valiums?

Did you bring your car?

Let me know when you go.

If you give me your number..

we could write the movie together.

-Alright?

-Yeah, alright.

Here she comes!

Here she comes.

Finally.

Wow.

-We are gathered here...

-Liar! That's what you are.

A selfish... manipulative..

irresponsible man.

A f***ing a**hole.

Give me one reason

to marry you.

I knew that was my last chance,

but I had no idea...

how to make the most of it.

I needed that thing I didn't

have during the wedding:

Luck.

It's funny how plans work better

when they fail.

What I'm trying to say

is that I've spent all day...

trying to find Leonora's ring.

And what happens?

Someone, by mistake,

closes the only tap left open...

and that solves everything.

Water starts to pressure

down the pipelines...

and when you least expect it...

Boom!

The ring appeared just

at the right time.

One reason?

That I love you deeply.

That I would love to grow old

with you.

And that since things didn't

work out as we expected...

maybe we could get married

again next year.

Is that alright?

Are you sure you want

to marry me... a**hole?

I am very sure.

Mazel Tov!

No!

Hello, Eleonora and...

Adrin. I remembered.

This was my first

wedding as a DJ.

I think this is my thing.

I'm truly thankful to you.

And...

Eleonora, you were beautiful.

The complete repair

of the pipelines.

Replacement of the reservoir tank.

We have to fix that.

I might also get married.

If we get back together again...

it would be nice

because we will both...

have experience on marriage.

My cousin's great-great father

brought that tiles

a hundred years ago.

It's impossible to find them.

He brought them from England.

I feel I've gained a daughter

although you are not Jewish.

Is this thing ready?

Are you recording?

I hope you get along well.

You are quite different.

And you should let your child

choose a religion.

What are you doing?

You are a mess.

How can you go around like this?

Let's go. We have

to dance the waltz.

Yes, darling.

I can't take this anymore.

We couldn't buy a present..

but we've brought some money.

- Adrin's friends are a disaster.

- They suck.

-But Agustina found a boyfriend.

-What?

My phone is 1-5-5-247...

Where did we include this?

When I used to play "Life",

the marriage part...

was one of my favorites.

You're an idiot. I can't do it.

My God.

Motherfuckers.

I hope you're happy...

if you can.

I wish the best for him too.

When you're smiling

When you're smiling

Keep on smiling

The whole world smiles with you

And when you're laughing

Keep on laughing

The sun comes shining through

But when you're crying

You bring on the rain
