Dashing international film star Hugh Grant plays a proper English entrepreneur who innocently stumbles into the criminal underworld in this sidesplitting romantic comedy. When a New York auction-house manager, Michael (Grant), proposes marriage to his girlfriend, she declines, not wanting another boyfriend to become corrupted by her Mafia family. But Michael inadvertently becomes a money launderer and accomplice to murder. Now, while trying to hide his Mob ties from his girlfriend, he desperately tries to stay alive by masquerading as the notorious Mickey Blue Eyes.
