Mail Order Wife

Year: 2004

Grade: B-

Country: USA

Director: Botko/Gurland

Review

film shot in a documentary style about a filmmaker following a man who seeks the company of a mail order bride. as the film unfolds it turns out that the man has less than pleasant intentions for his new bride and the filmmaker ends up falling in love with her. the film starts off looking and seeming a lot like a documentary and the comedy suffers because of this fact. as things get more absurd and the documentary facade becomes less and less deceiving the film becomes more and more humorous. it’s a good little picture with some very solid acting and writing. i loved the exploration of the hypocrisy of humanity and the fundamental drive for companionship, and what that does to people.
