The Proposal
Here comes the bribe...
Directed by Anne Fletcher
Produced by Touchstone Pictures, Mandeville Films
A charming romantic comedy about a tyrannical boss and her assistant forced into a fake marriage that becomes genuine, built on witty banter, physical comedy, and the warmth of found family.
When she learns she's in danger of losing her visa status and being deported, overbearing book editor Margaret Tate forces her put-upon assistant, Andrew Paxton, to marry her.
