A commitment-phobic man goes in search of a bride, including his fed-up girlfriend, to inherit his grandfather’s one hundred million dollar inheritance.
The Bachelor is a 1999 American romantic comedy-drama fantasy film directed by Gary Sinyor and written by Steve Cohen. It is a remake of the 1925 Buster Keaton silent comedy film Seven Chances and stars Chris O’Donnell and Renée Zellweger.
Bachelor Jimmie Shannon, after spoiling his proposal to Anne, his girlfriend of three years, discovers that his grandfather has died and left him the family business (worth $100 million) under the conditions that he be married by 6:05 p.m on his 30th birthday (the next day), that he not be apart from his bride for more than a week at a time over the next 10 years, and that they must attempt to produce a child sometime during the first five years of their marriage, leading the bachelor, his friends, and a priest to scramble over the next few hours in search of a bride.
Jimmie is a commitment-phobic man who discovers that his grandfather has passed away and left him a $100 million inheritance. However, there’s a catch: Jimmie must be married by 6:05 p.m. on his 30th birthday (which is the next day) to receive the money. The film is filled with comedic moments and explores themes of love, commitment, and the lengths one will go to for financial gain. It received mixed reviews from critics but has a charming and entertaining storyline.
