Handsome Antonio Banderas (Spy Kids I&II) joins seductive stars Melanie Griffith (Nobody's Fool) and Daryl Hannah (Grumpy Old Men) in this sexy screwball comedy! Art Dodge (Banderas) would like to break off his engagement with his fiancee Betty (Griffith)...only her mob boss ex-husband makes it impossible for him to say no to the wedding! It's then that Art unexpectedly falls in love with Betty's beautiful sister (Hannah) and becomes entangled in an outrageous charade--he invents his own twin bother so he can date both women at once! The laughs come fast and furious as Art's delirious double life spins hilariously out of control!
Editor's Note
When a struggling art gallery owner attracts the amorous attentions of a rich divorcee he thinks he's got it made, but when he meets her disinterested sister he falls in love with her instead. Not wanting to mess up a good thing, he invents a long-lost twin brother whom he uses to romance his fiancee's sister. Hilarity and hijinks ensue.
Plot Summary
When sexy con man Art Dodge meets rich, flighty Betty Kerner, the sparks fly. In fact, Betty is so taken with Art, she announces that they're getting married -- which is news to him. Then Art meets Betty's down-to-earth sister Liz, and becomes smitten.| However, Liz wants nothing to do with the randy Lothario, so the swindler creates a caring, sweet, alter-ego named Bart in order to woo her. As "Art" tries to dump Betty (a task easier said than done), "Bart" romances Liz. Will Art's juggling act lead to disaster?
