The Bachelor:
Friday November 5, 1999 |
Jimmie Shannon (Chris ODonnell) values his freedom
more than life itself. As his male peers, even his best buddy, Marco (Artie Lange), begin
to hook up in marriage, Jimmie continues happily plugging away with his dating lifestyle,
in no rush to find the one. When he least expects it, Jimmie crosses paths with the adorable Anne (Renée
Zellweger) and falls in love. After a three-year relationship, Jimmie feels the pressures
of commitment and decides to "give in", reluctantly proposing to Anne at the
most romantic of restaurants. Sensing his uncertainty and angry over his botched and lame
attempt at a proposal, Anne dumps Jimmie back into the town known as
"Bachelorville."
Shortly thereafter, Jimmies grandfather (Peter Ustinov) passes away and wills a $100
million inheritance to his grandson, on the condition he marries before his thirtieth
birthday, which is less than twenty-four hours away. After seeking advice from the family
attorney, Gluckman (Ed Asner) and stock broker, ODell (Hal Holbrook), a desperate
Jimmie hastily arranges for a priest (James Cromwell) to wait in the wings while he finds
a bride.© 1999 New Line Cinema.

The People's Review of The Bachelor
Stacia

I really liked 'The Bachelor' because the film was very funny and
interesting at the same time. It wasn't one of those movies where the humor
comes with no plot. I recommend 'The Bachelor' to anyone who likes
comedy/romance movies!!

I thought the bachelor was a great romantic movie that was very funny!!! I loved it
so much. Its a movie that you could watch on rainy days and it doesn't get boring.
