Loved this when it came out – but then I was eleven. It’s not as funny now but the basic idea is still strong – party guy decides to get married. It worked on film because there was an essential decency about Tom Hanks which made you root for him.
The script has two subplots in particular which aren’t in the final film: a scene where Tom Hanks gets a blow job under a table as he talks to a priest (isn’t that still cheating?) and a whole subplot where the Hispanic mechanic chases after a hooker who winds up winning a beauty pageant. Both good deletions.
