Ian Miller (John Corbett) is the poor sap who has to endure the family of his wonderful Greek bride to be in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding." He handles it with flying colors, though.
Toula Portokalos, a Greek woman must come to grips with her family and her heritage when she agrees to get married to a non-Greek gentleman in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding."
My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002) is the story of... well, that. A Greek girl must come to grips with her insane family, but also the importance of her heritage, when she agrees to get married to a non-Greek dude. Kinda funny.
Nick Portokalos: Listen, you know. I really think you should say: eho tria orchidea. It means: everyone, let's come in the house. I think everybody will really like it. Ian Miller: Eho tria orchidea? Nick Portokalos: Yeah! That's good! Very good! You got it! Ian Miller: I'm not falling for that again, Nick. Nick Portokalos: What? Ian Miller: Yeah, what. Angelo? How do you say: everyone, let's go into the house? Angelo: Eho tria orchidea! Nick Portokalos: Hum? Ian Miller: Everyone: eho tria orchidea! [translation: "I have three testicles!"]
Ian Miller: My parents' names are Rodney and Harriet. Toula Portokalos: [horrified, looking at wedding invites] Rodney and HARRY! Nick Portokalos: We didn't notice, so maybe they won't.
