Seven Chances

BRIDE GROOM RUNS WILD!

Buster thinks his luck has turned a corner when he's left $7 million in a will by a late relative. The hitch-he must marry by 7pm on his 27th birthday and guess which day it is!
It should be no problem since he has been having a long-term relationship with his girlfriend (since birth it would seem) and has almost asked her to marry him about a dozen times. Buster botches the proposal and manages to mortally offend her. What's a guy to do then with $7million dollars on one side and sure financial ruin on the other? Why not propose to one of those seven beauties having lunch at the country club. It's strikeouts all the way and then his friend does him a favour and places an ad for a bride willing to marry for money. The rest is cinematic history with the greatest chase scene you'll ever see. Hold on to your bellies, they are going to hurt from laughing.
Everything you see is in real time, everything Buster does in this film is really him-no CGI, no trickery, no stunt doubles just amazing work by one of the greatest comedians of all time.
