My brother always hated Father of the Bride for the fact that all Steve Martin did was bitch about money for his only daughter's wedding, yet he owned his own shoe company and drove an Aston Martin(I think that's what my brother said the type of car was).


You know what always pissed me off about that movie? The scene where he gets arrested in the store. He was complaining about the differences in quantities between hot dogs and hot dog buns. He clearly took 4 buns out of 3 packages, meaning he needed 24 buns. Why didn't he just grab two packages and move on? Idiot.

I just googled it and it was not an Aston Martin it was a 1959 Austin Healey 3000. Apparently easy to mix up with an old Aston.
Either way I think George Banks was a huge dick. He owned his own shoe company and obviously had money. Your daughter's wedding is not the place to cheap out. Especially since he didn't cheap out on the house or car.
And yeah, he's probably a millionaire, but won't just buy 2 packages of hot dog buns? Whats that cost back then? $2 bucks?
