Tim Blake Nelson and David Arquette are brothers and farmers. When their mother dies, Nelson decides they should go find a wife "for cooking and cleaning but not for sex." They travel to St Petersburg Russia on a "romance" tour to find a wife. There they run into Emily Mortimer who's filming a documentary on these introduction services. The three leads are excellent with particular kudos to Nelson who delivers an honest performance as the older brother desperately trying to find a wife to take back. Arquette makes a nice turn as a mama's boy becoming a lothario and Mortimer is wonderful as the observer who becomes a part of the story. A very pleasant surprise of a movie. The Russian sequences were shot over two weeks during an actual romance tour.
