The film debuted in 1991 and was the remake version of the original with the same title in 1950. It portrays the hardships George Banks (played by Steve Martin) has to encounter as he learns that his little daughter, 22-year-old Annie, is soon to get married. Annie returns home after studying abroad to announce that she has engaged to an independent communications consultant, Bryan MacKenzie, even though they have only known each other and felt in love for three months.
