Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Son of the Bride is a 2001 film from Argentina directed by Juan Jose Campanella.Rafael is a 42-year-old man going through a mid-life crisis. One might wonder why the heck he's having a crisis, since he's a successful restaurateur with a ridiculously sexy, fun, mid-20s girlfriend named Nati. But the restaurant game is a high-stress business that ruined his marriage (he's three years divorced from ex-wife Sandra) and leaves him little time to spend with their daughter Vicki, who is about ten. Far worse, his mother Norma is in an old folks' home with advanced Alzheimer's disease. Rafael hasn't gone to see her in a year, something he feels very guilty about.Rafael is stressed out by declining profit margins at his restaurant, and is grudgingly considering selling it to a corporation. He's thrown a curveball when his father Nino tells him that he wants to give Norma the church wedding she always wanted, and wants Rafael to help him pay for it—an idea that Rafael doesn't support, given Norma's mental decline. Stress and guilt lead to Rafael suffering a heart attack. He survives, but the brush with death leads him to a decision: he will "drop the fuck out" and leave the rat race behind.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Anguished Declaration of Love: Rafael comes to Nati's apartment building and, through the gate buzzer security cam, tells her how he had it all wrong. He wanted to get headaches and problems out of his life but he was really talking about headaches and problems related to bills and food suppliers, and that he actually does want to take on her problems and build a life with her. It ends only when she rushes out the door and kisses him.

The Big Damn Kiss: Nati's gate buzzer clicks on and we see through the security cam Rafael making his Anguished Declaration of Love. The scene ends with the security cam showing Nati appearing outside and jumping into Rafael's arms for The Big Damn Kiss.

Age Cut: The intro scene of Rafael and Juan Carlos as kids ends with a closeup of Rafael's eyes as he looks at a picture of his mom. Cut thirty-odd years to a closeup of Rafael's eyes as he stares blearily at a TV.
