In the most Mexican movie about weddings, Casese quien pueda (2014) Get married if you can Ana Paula (Martha Higareda) takes us into a roller coaster of feelings in this romantic comedy for Valentines Day. Directed by Marco Polo Constandse and starring Higadera herself. This film works in a way that it starts to be a brat but at the end she realize about love and what is really about.
The plot is about Ana Paula (Higareda), as a brat, young spoiled girl who have everything in life. Days before the wedding she finds out that her cousin is stealing her fiancé. Ana Paula still wants to get married and her sister Daniela (which is her real life sister named Miri) and Gustavo (Luis Gerardo Mendez) are surprised and mad at her. Which it creates another …show more content…

Meanwhile the Mendes wedding is getting done; Higareda and Brown are falling in love but the fiancé Alejandro (Alejandro Cuetara) does a trip to rescue his future wife, which Ana Paula returns to him but the day of the wedding she runs away being free.
Gustavo´s sisters show Daniela some of the home videos of Gustavo and they saw that Gustavo was actually in love of Ana Paula, in the end he fought for Daniela´s love and they ended up getting married as the plan, with a yellow dress and converse with sunflowers decorating the church. The way Marco Polo played with the lighting and how they seem very illuminated gives the idea of love, the way you want to see a groom and a bride in the aisle.
In the end of the movie when everyone though Ana Paula was all alone, Erik was in the wedding and dance so we can have a glimpse of love in there looks. I find this part very romantic and not cliché at all because Ana Paula doesn´t ended up getting married, but she ended up going again to the Mayan community to keep helping. The close ups between the jump cuts at the end give the idea of peace and not of the typical love
