Any other similar movies?


Are there any movies similar to this, where the focus of the movie is not on the circumstances that bring together two very different people, but rather, on how those two very different people handle the difference in their backgrounds while being together?

Someone suggested Oscar & Lucinda... She's The One is another example. Any more?

big fat greek wedding

i think even the whitman father was the same actor
the mother was very similar to the woman who played the mother in BIG fat Greek Wedding

But in Jungle Fever, they split up at the end (and there is no pregnancy involved); so not a really good comparison

Not sure if this is exactly what you're looking for, but I thought Doc Hollywood had a similar feel to it. Kind of a fish out of water romantic comedy. It doesn't have the interracial thing, but the two main characters have different backgrounds.

Try "It could happen to you" and "Serendipity"
