Paper Summary:

The 2000 movie, "Meet the Parents", is a comedy relating the visit of Greg Focker to his potential in-laws in a bid to ask for their daughter's hand in marriage. The paper examines the excellent casting of the movie and other methods used to make this film so successful at the box-office.

From the Paper:

"However, although these instances make the movie unsuitable for young children, much of the violence, profanity and nudity lend a realistic slant to the movie. One instance is the confrontation between Jack and Greg regarding their difference of opinions about cats. Although many cat-lovers may be reluctant to outwardly threaten someone who doesn't feel the same, it is likely that the intensity of their feelings is no less than Jack's when he opines that Greg's dislike for cats is a weakness. Another realistic scene from the movie takes place at the dinner table when Jewish Greg tries to pretend that he is able to say the blessing for this very WASP-y family."
