Ein charmantes Ekel (1991)
Nachdem ihr langjähriger Freund ihr eröffnet, daß er sie niemals heiraten wird, stürzt die Mittdreißigerin Renata Bella sich ins Arbeitsleben, um über den Schmerz hinwegzukommen. Bei einem Lehrgang lernt sie den ebenso pfauenhaften wie charmanten Sam kennen, in den sie sich sofort verliebt. Renatas Familie ist entsetzt, paßt der Litauer doch überhaupt nicht ins italoamerikansiche Familienidyll. Sam und Renata heiraten trotzdem und hoffen, dass irgendwann ihre Familie Sam doch noch akzeptiert.
