Movie Description In this gentle comedy, veteran actors David Carradine, Rip Torn, and Bruce Dern star as a trio of retired sea captains and confirmed bachelors in turn-of-the-20th-century Cape Cod. Housework is piling up at the home they share, and the men concoct a plan: send for a mail-order bride to do their cooking and cleaning. Jerry (Torn) loses a coin toss, and he dreads being the groom-to-be. But when the beautiful Martha Snow (Mariel Hemingway) arrives, one of his roommates may be tempted to renounce his single status in the name of love. Blackmail and arson add spice to this seaside-set romantic comedy, which also stars Charles Durning and John Savage.
