The
Twenties have roared….the Thirties have yet to swing, when
after a whirlwind romance young Englishman John Whittaker (Ben Barnes)
marries the sexy, glamorous racing driver, Larita (Jessica Biel).
Convinced his family will be as enchanted as him by his new bride John
returns to his family home with Larita. It is clear from the start,
however, that John’s mother Veronica (Kristin Scott Thomas)
is offended by everything about her new daughter-in-law: she is a
beautiful, older, independent divorcee and American! Larita tries her
best to fit in but fails to tiptoe through the minefield laid by her
mother-in-law. Quickly realizing Veronica’s game she sees
that she must fight back if she’s not going to lose John. A
battle of wits ensues and sparks soon fly...
