_**New York City love story with Matt Dillon

_**New York City love story with Matt Dillon and Annabella Sciorra**_ A Con Edison electrician in Manhattan (Matt Dillon) needs money to buy/renovate a bowling alley with his four partners and so tries to find a husband for his ex-wife (Annabella Sciorra) so he can stop paying alimony. Mary-Louise Parker plays his girlfriend while William Hurt appears as the ex’s beau, a college professor. Vincent D'Onofrio is also on hand. "Mr. Wonderful" (1993) is a solid enough romantic drama with some amusing touches set in the Big Apple. It’s a great movie to see Manhattan in the early 90s, big hair and all (e.g. Sciorra). It successfully establishes the main characters and you buy into their story. On top of this you get Parker at the height of her beauty, which the director doesn’t fail to tastefully display on a few occasions. Speaking of the director, Anthony Minghella would go on to direct notable films like “The English Patient” (1996) and “Cold Mountain” (2003). Unfortunately he died prematurely at the age of 54 from a hemorrhage following surgery to remove tonsils & neck cancer. The film runs 1 hour, 39 minutes, and was shot in Manhattan & points nearby. GRADE: B-

guy loses girl, guy tries to find another guy for girl

I expected this movie to bore me within the first five minutes, but I had an afternoon to kill and there was a rerun of a home improvement show I could watch. I got a pleasant surprise and never did check into ways to repaint the kitchen. I found the plot to be original because of Dillon's machinations to get another guy the girl. He's not much of a matchmaker, but he seems to sincerely want hi ex-wife to be happy. The end was predictable, but Sciorra and Dillon are convincing as angry ex- spouses who have gone in different directions and the numerous character actors fill in the occasional boring spots, especially Dan Hedeya - I like anything he does though, so I am biased.
