Yes, I'm a testosterone-driven macho male, but I have to admit this is one of my favourite movies. Over the years I've owned this one on VHS, DVD and Blu-ray and have literally watched it hundreds of times. It's a nice romantic-ish feel-good movie. Every character is a joy to watch and the script is endlessly quotable as my wife and I regularly punctuate conversations with wee snippets from this movie. So many people knock Kevin Kline's French accent in this, but they are wrong! The man is fluent in French for God's sake.
After her fiancee admits to infidelity while on a business trip in France, a woman attempts to get her lover back and marry him by traveling to Paris despite her crippling fear of flying. On the way she unwittingly smuggles something of value that has a charming crook chasing her across France as she chases after her future husband.
