Der Zufalls-Dad (1994)
Eine verhängnisvolle Winternacht ändert das bisher triste Leben des eigenbrötlerischen Junggesellen Michael McCann. Ein kleines elternloses Mädchen steht plötzlich vor seiner Tür. Zwar krempelt der Knirps Michaels ruhiges Leben völlig um, dennoch beschließt er, die kleine Mathilda selbst großzuziehen. Jahre vergehen und das Mädchen entwickelt sich dank seines "Zufalls-Dad" zu einem glücklichen Teenie. Doch plötzlich verlangt der leibliche Vater - ein karrierebesessener Politiker - das einst verleugnete Kind zurück. Jetzt muß die kleine Mathilda selbst entscheiden, ob Zufall nicht wirklich Schicksal heißen soll
