Just grab the popcorn, put the phones away, and enjoy. Start your free trial to watch My Big Fat Greek Wedding and other popular TV shows and movies including new releases, classics, Hulu Originals, and more. This is one movie where no surprises lurk. This is a terrific choice for families with older tweens: The romance is age-appropriate, and the characters are great role models for how to fall in love and treat each other right. The movie is riotously funny but heart-catchingly touching, and it will make you want to go back and hug everyone you're related to. Vardalos and director Joel Zwick balance the specifics of the Greek-American culture with the transcendent universalities of family dynamics, and Vardalos and Corbett have a believable sweetness with each other. Plot Thirty-year-old Fotoula Toula Portokalos is a member of a huge, noisy, and intrusive Greek family that is solely interested in seeing her get married and start a family. Tom Hanks and his wife, Rita Wilson (who's Greek), saw the show and decided to make it into a movie with Vardalos playing herself. The film established a franchise that served as the inspiration for the short-lived 2003 television series My Big Fat Greek Life and the film My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2.
Actress/writer Vardalos created a one-woman show about her Greek family and their response when she married a man who wasn't Greek. And the story behind My Big Fat Greek Wedding is as remarkable as the film itself. Some language and sexual situations are disappointing, but for adults with a healthy perspective on these issues, the Portokalos/Miller party is a wedding worth attending. Viewers will fall in love with Nia Vardalos and her family, too they're an irresistible force, and she's just plain irresistible. It’s funny, smart, well-acted and touching with a point to make about family ties.
