Disposable Fiancé: Difference between revisions

* ''[[His Girl Friday]]''

* ''[[The Awful Truth]]''

* ''[[The Graduate]]'': Probably Bland Perfection, to the extent that the audience even gets to know him in the few minutes of screen time he has. Outside pressure was also most likely a factor in Elaine's swift engagement and marriage. Of course, in that movie, she'd already married the guy by the time she ran out in the wedding dress.

* ''[[The Wedding Planner]]'', of the "lets call the whole thing off" variety. Worked horribly, as the only person you feel sorry for is the fiancé. The man gets romantically involved with another woman (who turns out to be the wedding planner his fiancé has hired) and then berates her for "misinterpreting" his philandering. He then ignores the whole thing and lets his fiancé plan their wedding blissfully unaware that he's falling in love with the planner (who only superficially thinks of ending the whole thing and never lets her client in on what her fiancé is really doing). Meanwhile, the planner is constantly leading on a childhood friend who is desperately in love with her to either serve to make the male lead jealous, or to boost herself up emotionally as she pines for the leading man. At the last second, the ''fiancé'' decides ''she'' doesn't want to get married, giving him the opportunity to run after the female lead. With his behavior, it's kind of hard to imagine how ''either'' woman wants him in the first place.
