Green Card

1990 · 1h 48m · Comedy, Romance, Drama

Skip it. This 1990 romantic comedy feels like a relic of its era—the fish-out-of-water premise and forced cohabitation hijinks have been done to death, and the chemistry between the leads isn't strong enough to overcome the predictable plot beats and dated humor. Unless you're specifically hunting for '90s nostalgia, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Plot

Urban horticulturalist Brontë Mitchell has her eye on a gorgeous apartment, but the building's board will rent it only to a married couple. Georges Fauré, a waiter from France whose visa is expiring, needs to marry an American woman to stay in the country. Their marriage of convenience turns into a burden when they must live together to allay the suspicions of the immigration service, as the polar opposites grate on each other's nerves.

Director: Peter Weir

Cast: Gérard Depardieu, Andie MacDowell, Bebe Neuwirth, Gregg Edelman, Robert Prosky
