About Fate
Two strangers separately have their engagement proposal wishes crushed by their love ones both on December 30. Margot (Emma Roberts) is a realtor & the maid of honor at her sister’s wedding the next day. Griffin (Thomas Mann) is a lawyer & tries to propose unsuccessfully to his social media influencer girlfriend Clementine. This rom/com is a remake of the Russian film “Irony of Fate”. It’s a comedy of errors involving drinking too much, the wrong address, a last minute substitution, breaking & entering, coincidences, pretending who you are not, and being a nice guy. This is a funny, cute, & charming story about that crazy twist of fate. Roberts is delightful as the screwup who tries to please. Rom/com fans will love this one.
