🎬 Father of the Bride (1950)
Runtime: 2h 18m | Genre: Romantic Comedy
A delightful and heartwarming comedy, Father of the Bride captures the chaos, charm, and emotional whirlwind of planning a wedding—through the eyes of the father. Spencer Tracy stars as Stanley Banks, a well-meaning dad who finds himself overwhelmed when his daughter (Elizabeth Taylor) announces her engagement. From guest lists and gowns to in-laws and inevitable meltdowns, Stanley navigates the ups and downs of giving his daughter away with humor and heart. Blending witty dialogue with genuine emotion, this beloved classic showcases the timeless challenges—and joys—of family, tradition, and letting go.
Free and open to the public.
