Forget Paris Billy Crystal and Debra Winger fit together better than their characters in this honest rom-com

Plot Mickey (Crystal) goes to France to bury his father and, when the airline loses the coffin, runs into ex-pat Ellen (Winger). Eventually they marry, but when the romance cools, the couple learn to cope with their irreconcilable careers, her senile father (a great William Hickey) and their inability to have a child. Verdict Towards the end you wish they'd just get it over with, but this film usually overcomes even the most cynical viewer's resistance.
