Triple bill of 1990s British comedies. The hugely popular 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' (1994) established Hugh Grant as Hollywood's favourite bumbling Brit and garnered Oscar nominations for Best Picture and Richard Curtis's screenplay. Shy Londoner Charles (Grant) meets American Carrie (Andie MacDowell) at a friend's wedding and enjoys a one-night stand with her. The next time they meet, again at a wedding, Carrie is accompanied by a rich fiance, leaving Charles heartbroken. But never mind: with another wedding on the horizon, there is still time for him to pitch his woo and win the love of his transatlantic sweetheart. In 'The Full Monty' (1997), unemployed Sheffield steelworker Gaz (Robert Carlyle) hatches a plan to make his fortune after witnessing the hysteria created by visiting strippers The Chippendales. Along with pal Dave (Mark Addy), he forms a strip act made up of a mixed bunch including depressed security guard Lomper (Steve Huison) and their former foreman, Gerald (Tom Wilkinson), a ballroom dancer and now also unemployed, who they persuade to choreograph the group. Once they have practised their routine they set out to reclaim their dignity by going 'the full monty' in their act. Richard E. Grant stars in 'Jack and Sarah' (1997) as Jack, a man with a highly demanding job and a wife who is about to give birth. After a tragedy makes him a single parent his life is completely upended. He decides to employ Amy (Samantha Mathis), an inexperienced young waitress, as nanny to his new baby, Sarah. Although she is brought in to help out in his life, Amy only manages to complicate it further. Judi Dench and Ian McKellen co-star.
