Director's cousin inspires Korean wedding movie
A Korean traditional wedding is the talk of the town, at least for Jason Filardi, the scriptwriter for the film "A Korean Wedding".
Filardi, who wrote the comedy "Bringing Down the House" in 2003, based his film on his cousin, Iain McConnel, who married a Korean.
According to CJ Entertainment, the film looks at the cultural differences between an American man and his Korean fiancee who have a traditional wedding.
Meanwhile, CJ Entertainment announced Monday that its co-producer for the film will be Lions Gate Entertainment, an American independent entertainment studio.
The studio produced "The Forbidden Kingdom" (2008), "Crash" (2004) and "Saw" (2004).
