Anecdotes
The make and model of the regularly seen little yellow car was a 1978 Leyland Clubman Mini Light Van Panel Van. It's appearance in the movie is a homage and reference to the yellow mini featured in the earlier classic Kiwi comedy 'Goodbye Pork Pie' (1980). The New Zealand Herald reported that this film's ''first-time feature director Paul Murphy is the son of Geoff Murphy, maker of the legendary 'Goodbye Pork Pie'.''

Great Kiwi Film - A Better Big Fat Greek Wedding

Went to the premiere of this film in Wellington, while I was in NZ doing post production of a new film. Wasn't sure what to expect but was delighted that it was a completely entertaining, well crafted, thoroughly enjoyable film. Romantic comedies are a lost art these days and director Paul Murphy, in his first film to helm, has the gift. I think we'll see great things from him.

I was a bit worried I wouldn't "get" the film, being a Yank, but was happily surprised to see that even though there were a handful of moments that the audience erupted in laughter and I hadn't a clue, it didn't affect my experience at all. I think the film should definitely have an international life. It could do very nicely in the States in a limited, art house release, and then a long, healthy, successful run on cable and DVD.

If you get a chance to see this film, grab it. Charming movie that sneaks up on you and might even elicit a tear or two between laughs. Don't miss it.
