After Pretty Woman, Julia Roberts made several films that fell short at the box office. Then came a role that seemed to fit her and in turn drew audiences. In My Best Friend's Wedding, Julia plays Julianne, a food critic who made a promise with her best friend, Michael, if they were not married when they turn 28 they would marry each other. Three weeks before the deadline, Julianne finds out he is getting married and decides she wants Michael for herself. She goes to Chicago, with only four days and the help of her friend George, to stop the wedding.

Words to remember from My Best Friend's Wedding:
George: Please, Julianne. I don't send you men anymore. You haven't the first idea what to do with them.
George: Why don't we just stop and have a drink? You can take a later flight.
Julianne: No, no, no, no. I'm a busy girl. I've got exactly four days to break up a wedding, steal the bride's fella, and I haven't one clue how to do it.
Kimmy: He sucks soup up through his front teeth.
Julianne: That's a trademark move. Don't touch that one.
Kimmy: But he sure can kiss.
Kimmy: He's got you on a pedestal and me in his arms.
Julianne: I've got moves you've never seen.
Kimmy's mother: I insist you stay on to lunch.
Julianne: No, no, no, no, no...Absolutely-
George: Love to! Love the bag, love the shoes, love everything. Love to!
Michael: Kimmy says if you love someone you say it, you say it right then, out loud. Otherwise the moment just...
Julianne: Passes you by...
Michael: Passes you by...
Julianne: Michael, I love you. I've loved you for nine years, I've just been too arrogant and scared to realize it, and...well, now I'm just scared. So, I realize this comes at a very inopportune time, but I really have this gigantic favor to ask of you. Choose me. Marry me. Let me make you happy. Oh, that sounds like three favors, doesn't it?
