Catered Affair

A novel about a jilted bride who's about to discover that not marrying the wrong man can sometimes lead you to the right one. When Tallulah gets jilted at the altar, she gets very drunk and starts making passes at the male wedding guests. She even propositions the caterer. But in the next few weeks, reality comes crashing down around her. Her difficult mother becomes more impossible than ever. Her lesbian sister starts trying to have a baby. Nana Ida gets busy matchmaking. What Tallulah is about to discover is that happiness doesn't always come in the form of the perfect doctor- and that sometimes real love doesn't require a catered affair.

Stubbornly self-reliant Mary Beth Kendrick needs financial backing to keep her catering business cooking. A looming corporate buyout forces her to accept help from Tom Sackett, the man who once broke her heart. Though Tom's betrayal left Mary Beth distrustful of men, she swallows her pride for the sake of the company she created. Unable to forget Mary Beth, Tom sets out to win her forgiveness. Through their shared business interests, he realizes he needs the proud, beautiful Mary Beth in his life. Can he convince her to give him another chance? Grateful for Tom's support but unwilling to trust him, Mary Beth vows to keep their relationship business-only. But his attentiveness starts to melt her icy resolve and shows her the caring, sensitive man Tom has become. Can Mary Beth break free of the past and learn to love and trust again?

Aggie Hurley (Bette Davis) is making up for a lifetime of making do. Her daughter Jane (Debbie Reynolds) is going to have a lavish wedding - even if Jane wants a simple ceremony. And even if Aggie's husband Tom (Ernest Borgnine) must give up his dream of owning his own taxi to finance the extravaganza. Borgnine, winner of 1955's Best Actor Oscar(r) for Marty (like The Catered Affair originally written for TV by Paddy Chayefsky), etches another superb working-class portrait. And Davis, renowned for playing larger-than-life characters, proves masterly at capturing the life-sized intensity of Aggie. Together, they create a gem of "shirtsleeved intimacy and gamy humor" (Time) as real as a shabby Bronx apartment. Barry Fitzgerald and Rod Taylor also star.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media.

A Catered Affair, the new musical with book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein, score by John Bucchino and direction by Tony Award-winner John Doyle, poses the question that inevitably faces every mother and daughter: whose wedding is it anyway? It's 1953, and family ties are strained when a Bronx mother struggles to give her only daughter the elaborate wedding she herself never had and the bride never asked for. Based on the 1956 motion picture of the same name, the production stars Tony Award-winner Faith Prince as Aggie Hurley, the mother-of-the-bride, Tony Award-nominee Tom Wopat as 'Tom Hurley,' the father-of-the-bride, and Fierstein himself as Winston, the uncle-of-the-bride. It's a funny, poignant and oh-so-human tale of love and disaffection, and the tender and melodic score to A Catered Affair -- expertly preserved on this original Broadway cast recording -- explores both our need for love and the true meaning of family.
