Wrong For Each Other

DESCRIPTION

A classic romantic comedy from the pen of Canada’s king of comedy.

“Incisive, funny and moving.”

If opposites attract, then Rudy and Norah should be a match made in heaven! He paints houses; she runs a cultural centre. His parents run a vegetable stand; her dad plays first violin. Rudy wants a houseful of kids, Norah … not so much.
